What’s New
Advancing renewable fuel production
Renewable fuels aren’t new – but America’s refineries are helping take their production to a new level. AFPM members are driving the expansion of renewable diesel (RD) and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), investing in new capacity, upgrading facilities and scaling advanced technologies to meet growing demand.
Union Pacific can’t monopolize the debate over its merger
From AFPM, ACC and ACD: When it comes to its proposed merger with Norfolk Southern, Union Pacific seems increasingly intent on monopolizing not only the nation's freight rail system, but the debate over whether the deal is good for America. UP executives have attacked trade associations for speaking out against the merger, arguing that because the railroad does not directly serve our organizations, we should not have a voice in the debate. They have it backwards. We don't serve Union Pacific. We serve our members.
