Before You Arrive: Participants should schedule meetings with their legislators ahead of time using their home address, work address, or both. 

You can look up your legislators and contact information using Legislators - Minnesota Legislature.

1. Click on link provided.
2. Find your house representative and senator (scheduling a meeting with both legislators would be ideal).
3. Locate their legislative assistant contact information.
4. Email or phone the legislative assistant to arrange a meeting time (note if you email and do not hear back, we recommend following up with a phone call to schedule a meeting time).
5. Please note legislative calendars fill fast, so we recommend you arrange a meeting as soon as possible!

Please note: Both buildings are a short walk from the Capitol grounds.

• Representatives have offices in the Centennial Office Building (east of the Capitol).
• Senators have offices in the Minnesota Senate Building (University Ave. & Park St., northwest of the Capitol).

You are also encouraged to attend any committee hearings scheduled that day to observe the legislative process in action. All Committees' Hearings Schedule - Minnesota Senate

Small‑Group Visits: Participants are welcome to pair up with colleagues for small group visits with legislators. This option can make the experience more comfortable—especially for first‑time advocates—and supports a collaborative approach to sharing nursing perspectives.

We look forward to seeing you at the Capitol and amplifying nursing’s collective voice together.
