The 2012 Alabama Legislative session is underway in Montgomery.
it's expected to draw attention to a continuing problem for law enforcement.
The soaring price of copper and other precious metals has led to home and business break-ins.
A senate bill would require scrap dealers to keep detailed records on sellers.
it's patterned after the "pseudo" law which limits the number of cold medicine packs one can buy.
The drug is a key ingredient in making crystal-meth.
