Township Day at the Capitol: Issues that matter

ALL township officials are invited to join the Minnesota Association of Townships for "Township Day at the Capitol" on February 1 and 2, 2023. We'll have trainings, speakers, and impactful meetings with legislators to advocate for important township priorities.  (This event replaces our annual MAT Legislative and Research Committee meeting at the Capitol.)
