One week from today, there will be a hearing at the Idaho Capitol. On any given day during the legislative session, there are many hearings and on rare occasions, emotions can surface.
But the hearing before the Senate State Affairs Committee will undoubtedly be very emotional. That's when lawmakers will consider a resolution to establish a day of awareness for missing and murdered indigenous people in Idaho.
Tai Simpson is a Social Change Associate with the Idaho Coalition Against Sexual and Domestic Violence. She joins Morning Edition host George Prentice to talk about that resolution.
