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 2025, the event will tentatively be held on Wednesday, Feb 5. Due to the TNVET organizations, other sponsors and event donations, this is a no cost event for participating veterans. 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), although we may have cap the number due to facility constraints. Because of the constraints, if signups exceed facility capacity, preference will be given to members of the TNVET organizations.
****ALERT: We will let you know when the signup portal is open for the Feb 2025 event ****
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 2024 legislative agenda is completed and may be viewed under the “Legislation”, subtab “2024 Legislation”. The legislative agenda for 2025 will be in development by July 2024. TNVET organizations will be notifed of the meeting/planning date and location.
THE SIGN UP for the Feb 2025 “Veterans Day On The Hill” will tenetatively open late November 2024.
Dozens of meetings, some one-on-one, some in group settings, and attendance at legislative committees that are discussing the passage of veteran bills take place at every “Veterans Day On The Hill”.
