CPA Lobby Day
Supporting CPAs in Minnesota
CPA Lobby Day is typically held in late February. For more information please contact Jenna Lehmann at 952-885-5534.
Help the MNCPA get a seat at the table with key decision makers when you attend CPA Lobby Day. Members from across Minnesota gather for this powerful event to
educate legislators on issues impacting the CPA profession. It's important that
lawmakers fully understand the issues that are important to you and how they affect the
Minnesota business community.
At CPA Lobby Day you will:
- Meet your state legislators
- Educate lawmakers and increase your status as a trusted adviser
- Earn three free CPE credits at no cost
Find out who your legislators are

Members of all experience levels are encouraged to attend. If you do not feel
comfortable meeting with your legislators alone, we can team you up with other seasoned
CPA Lobby Day attendees.
Take your profession's future into your own hands and make a difference for CPAs.
The more CPAs at CPA Lobby Day, the greater impact we will have at the Capitol.
