On January 29, 2026 more than 40 State Legislators from 13 states , including Bozeman State Senator, Cora Neumann, met in person; with more than 100 state legislators from 27 states who joined them virtually, to participate in a Day of Solidarity convened by the non-profit, State Futures, to highlight their coordinated legislative alliance to protect communities and confront increasing federal authoritarian tactics, such as experienced by Minnesota residents with the escalation of force by thousands of masked, heavily armed federal agents in the wake of the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti.

After their Minnesota State Senate Hearing on ICE activity in Minnesota at the state capitol in St. Paul, Minnesota, several of the state legislators from numerous states held a press conference, the audio of which we share with you.
