Thursday, April 23, 2026
Minnesota State Capitol | St. Paul, MN

Veterans Day on the Hill is Minnesota’s largest annual veterans advocacy event, hosted by the Minnesota Commanders’ Task Force (MNCTF)—a united coalition of nine leading veterans service organizations.Each spring, hundreds gather in St. Paul to:

  • Rally in the Capitol Rotunda
  • March together to demonstrate our collective strength
  • Meet directly with state legislators and lawmakers
  • Advocate for critical issues affecting Minnesota’s veterans and military families

Key priorities often include:

  • Full funding and passage of the Veterans and Military Omnibus Bill
  • Addressing veterans’ homelessness and housing needs
  • Expanding access to mental health and suicide prevention resources
  • Protecting veterans from predatory “claim sharks”
  • Securing property tax exclusions and other benefits
  • Supporting county veterans service officers and statewide programs

Your participation matters—whether you’re a veteran, family member, supporter, or community ally. This nonpartisan event holds lawmakers accountable and drives real policy change for those who served.
