Catch up on public affairs issues as the Minnesota Council on Disability (MCD), state legislators, state agency officials, disability advocates and other disability organizations lay out their priorities for the coming session. The Legislative Forum provides an opportunity for people who develop, design, and implement disability-related public policy to interact with lawmakers directly.
There are two ways to attend the Legislative Forum:
- In person

We will be taking viewer questions during the Legislative Forum.
