Transportation Forward Day at the Capitol

March 21, 2019 @ 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Speak up for transportation options in Minnesota!

Across Minnesota, transportation has a major impact on our everyday lives and on our environment. On March 21, join us at the State Capitol to remind lawmakers that affordable, healthy, and sustainable options are essential to our families, our neighborhoods, and our future. Speak out for a transportation system that works for all!

Our goal is to make statewide funding for transit, bicycling, and walking a top priority this legislative session.

Activities will start at 1:00 PM and we would love to see you there! Throughout the afternoon, participants will learn how to talk with legislators about why investments in transit, biking, and walking are important. As we gather in the Rotunda, you will hear from inspirational speakers and leaders about transportation and a variety of intersecting issues. Snacks and refreshments will be provided.

Wear yellow or blue to help us make a visible impact at the Capitol. Meet at the Rotunda to check-in with our team when you arrive.

1:00 pm – Check-in & Registration in Capitol Rotunda
