State Legislative Issues
APMA serves as your representative to the Arizona Legislature and liaison with key government agencies such as:
• Arizona Department of Environmental Quality
• Arizona Department of Transportation
• Arizona Department of Agriculture Weights and Measures Services Division
During the legislative session, APMA tracks bills that may impact members, reviews them with the Legislative Committee and Board of Directors to establish a position and sends out legislative updates to the membership at large. Calls to Action notify members in advance of critical votes and give specific suggestions on contacting your elected officials.
