A speaker at the 2025 Humane Lobby Day.

Compassionate Action for Animals is tabling at Humane Lobby Day! Organized by Humane World for Animals (formerly the Humane Society of the United States), this powerful day of action at the State Capitol brings together dozens of Minnesota advocates and organizations committed to protecting animals.

Register online by Tuesday, March 10, so organizers can contact your legislators and set up a meeting on your behalf. You’ll be given thorough information beforehand to speak with your legislators alongside other constituents from your district. (You’ll also receive a plant-based lunch from Reverie Cafe + Bar with your ticket!)

When you arrive at Christ Lutheran Church (105 University Ave W, St. Paul, MN 55103), you’ll have time from 10am to noon to chat with other attendees and tabling organizations. Speakers will also share information about priority legislation on companion animals, wildlife protection, animals used for research, and animals raised for fur, so you can be prepared when you head across the street to the Capitol to speak to your representatives. Representative meetings happen sporadically during the early afternoon until 3pm.

If you meet with your representative, we encourage you to mention HF2764/SF2970, which would create a plant-based school meal option available on request to Minnesota students. Read more about this legislation in a blog post from last summer.

Parking will be in the F lot at the corner of Rice St. and Fuller Ave, with the entrance on the southeast corner of Fuller Ave. The event will be in the basement of Christ Lutheran Church, which is approximately a 5-minute walk from the parking lot. There will also be street parking, so participants are encouraged to show up early.

Hope to see you there!
