Why Join WSLA?
Imagine doing business in a state featuring...
Doubling the liquor and beer taxes, or doubling the price of your liquor license renewal
A state-wide smoking ban for all businesses, including bars
Outlawing sales of specific sizes and types of alcohol
Random roadblocks or "sobriety checkpoints" across the state
Runaway lawsuits against the liquor industry, both on and off-premise
No drive-up windows, no happy hours, and promotional restrictions
Public health warning posters required in your business
Elimination or major changes in the wholesale structure, resulting in major price hikes
Increased minimum wage for tipped and/or regular minimum wage employees
A BAC for drunk driving at .06, or lower
Elimination of the population formula to determine liquor licenses
A major overhaul of Workers Compensation rates with significant negative impact on retailers
These are not scare tactics.
Every single item above has been formally proposed in Wyoming legislation. Without banding together, stopping the assault on your livelihood is impossible.
That's Why WSLA Exists
For over 80 years, we've been the only organization standing between Wyoming's liquor industry and the legislation that would destroy it. Here's how.
We Fight So You Don’t Have To
Legislative Watchdog
We monitor every legislative session and governmental meeting that could affect your business — so you don’t have to.
Regulatory Advocacy
We work directly with the Wyoming Liquor Division to ensure fair, sensible regulations that protect businesses.
Collective Power
Together, we’ve defeated dozens of harmful bills. One voice is easy to ignore — 450 are impossible.

World-Class Training, On Us
TIPS certification typically costs $40–50 per employee. As a WSLA member, every person on your staff gets it free. That’s the internationally recognized gold standard in responsible service — reducing your liability exposure while keeping you compliant. The training pays for the membership by itself.
450 Owners. One Voice.
When a bill drops that threatens your business, you’ll know about it before it hits the news. Legislative alerts, regulatory bulletins, and direct access to a network of 450+ owners who’ve seen it all. You’re not figuring this out alone.
Act Now
Don't Wait Until It's Too Late
You just read 12 threats to your business. Every one of them was real legislation. The only thing that stopped them was 450+ owners standing together.
Membership starts at $150/year. That's less than one night's revenue to protect every night after it.
