On January 10, 2023, anti-mandate protesters gathered in the New York State Capitol to lobby lawmakers and protest existing vaccine mandates and proposed legislation as the new legislative session began and Governor Kathy Hochul delivered her State of the State address.

Brian Brase, a trucker and leader of the People's Convoy protest movement spearheaded by truckers during 2022, came to New York and spoke at the capitol protest.

Brase sat down with me afterward to talk about why he traveled to New York to support the protesters, what the movement looks like now from his perspective in the Midwest, and how labor activism is evolving.
