Lobbying and Government Relations
Each state organization works as an 
active voice for petroleum marketers 
and convenience store operators with 
state government agencies and with 
state legislatures. Each State Executive 
Director is dedicated and knowledge-
able, effi  ciently representing marketers 
within their state. The WPMA head offi  ce 
coordinates regional issues and national 
issues as covered by EMA.
Publications / Communications
 
 WPMA keeps members abreast of 
trends, changes, regulations, and 
laws aff ecting the petroleum and 
convenience store industry. We do this 
through our WEEKLY UPDATE, along 
with our quarterly resource magazine, the 
WPMA NEWS. These two publications 
include current industry information; the 
resource magazine includes articles from 
each state executive offi  cer, listing of state directors and 
associate members, message from the WPMA President 
and CEO, industry news and advertising (ad rates available 
on-line at www.wpma.com/advertising, or upon request). 
WPMA also sends individual mailings, emails, and posts on 
Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn with specifi c and timely 
information when necessary, concerning up-to-date changes 
in regulations and practices.
Among the social media is the WPMA APP. 
Download the free app for state conventions, 
Silent Auctions and WPMAEXPO schedules, 
exhibitors and more.
Meetings / Conventions / Networking
  
 WPMA works continually to improve 
communications among all petro-
leum marketers through both local 
and state meetings, and is involved 
in regional and national conventions 
(States and 
EXPO). These 
meetings give petroleum marketers 
a chance to meet fellow marketers 
from other areas and exchange strategies and ideas. Those 
who attend these meetings, workshops, and trade exhibits 
gain insights that help increase profi ts.
