Every early February/late January, TNVET organizes and conducts “Veterans Day On The Hill” in the Cordell Hull State Office Building in Nashville (425 Rep. John Lewis Way N, Nashville, TN 37243).  This building houses all state legislator offices and meeting facilities. In 2026, the event will be held on Wednesday, Jan 28. Due to the TNVET organizations, other sponsors and event donations, this is a no cost event for participating veterans…..parking and lunch are included…no cost.  Download the Prep Package (see below) for full instructions, timetables and details.

Any veteran may attend (this includes veterans who may not be a member of ANY state veteran organization or those whose veteran organization has not joined TNVET), usually we have to limit the number due to facility constraints. Because of the constraints, it’s first come, first serve.

However, while this event is to give veterans the opportunity to meet their state legislators and learn how their state government works, the primary purpose of this day is to support and advocate for the legislative bills that the TNVET member organizations have formulated and approved for the Tennessee Legislative session.  The 2026 legislative agenda is being completed and will be posted soon.
