MN Chamber Day at the Capitol

The 2026 Chamber Day at the Capitol will bring Minnesota’s business community to the Capitol at a pivotal moment for the state’s economic future. This event will outline the Chamber’s 2026 legislative priorities focused on improving tax competitiveness, restoring employer-focused flexibility in workplace mandates, balancing environmental protections with timely and predictable permitting, and reducing costs that impact employers and families alike. Attendees will hear directly from legislative leadership, gain insight into the 2026 elections landscape from local media and engage with policymakers on the decisions shaping Minnesota’s economic trajectory. Chamber Day at the Capitol also offers a valuable opportunity to connect with fellow business leaders, build relationships and schedule meetings with your legislators to advocate for a pro-growth policy agenda.
