Make your voice heard! Each year, AGC members meet with key decision makers and advocate for the construction industry. It’s important to communicate with legislators this time of year as they make key budget and policy decisions.

Join us as we discuss the best ways to advocate for the industry, and hear from legislators, MnDOT Commissioner Nancy Daubenberger, and Dept. of Admin leadership on what's in store.

Join the 2022-2023 Leadership Blueprint cohort on Wednesday (immediately following AGC Day at the Capitol) as they celebrate their graduation! Hear from graduates on how the program helped equip them as leaders, and then hear from nationally recognized speaker Jake Thompson.

AGC members and prospective members are encouraged to join the AGC Board of Directors and staff for a member networking event at Coyote Moon Grill (on the Territory Golf Course property) in St. Cloud next Thursday, April 13th!

When the Minnesota Legislature gaveled in on January 3, few – if any – Capitol watchers predicted the historic pace and productivity.

The Minnesota Department of Transportation is offering a virtual and several in-person workshops to small businesses hoping to earn MnDOT contracts for smaller construction projects, maintenance work or needs requiring specific professional technical skills.

From tree trimming work and landscaping projects, to paving sidewalks and fixing fences, MnDOT has a variety of smaller work contracts available for bid every year. The agency also has electrical contracts, needs for surveying, real estate appraisals and more. Some MnDOT contracts offer up to $100,000.

Workshops are open to all small businesses, but especially to those that are economically disadvantaged or owned by people with disabilities, women, veterans, or members of BIPOC communities.

Attendees are encouraged to register for these workshops to help MnDOT prepare for attendance.
