About the Bill Tracker
Each year, the Minnesota Legislature introduces dozens of bills that impact the lives of people with disabilities—sometimes positively, sometimes not.
Here, you’ll find up-to-date information on key disability-related legislation introduced during the 2026 session.
Note: This tracker is for informational purposes only. It does not indicate MCD’s support or opposition to any bill. For positions on certain bills, refer to our Public Policy Letters. For overall priorities, refer to our 2026 Legislative Agenda.
