Dear ASA Members. 

It is with great pleasure and honor that I write to each of you as your ASA President. It is deeply humbling to be entrusted by each of you to lead this great organization. I know I have big footprints to follow, and am looking forward to the challenges and opportunities ahead. Further, I am optimistic that we have a bright future ahead of us, and am hopeful that COVID-19 is now moving into our rearview mirror. 

As an industry, we stepped up during COVID to continue to provide vital services in support of our critical infrastructure. As important, each of you stepped up as leaders in your companies and communities to help navigate the challenges ahead. That willingness to lead by our industry is one of the reasons I am so passionate about what we do as Subcontractors. We build America. 

In the last year, ASA was active on both the legal and legislative fronts at the state and national level. We have had several successful legislative wins via the efforts of Mike Oscar and the Governmental Affairs Committee. ASA also had a number of successful amicus brief victories via the efforts of Shannon Oscar and the ASA Attorney’s Council. Both of these groups are a key part of your ASA benefits, and I wanted to thank both groups in my first letter to you. No other organization I have been involved with has a higher level of commitment to advocacy and making real changes as does ASA. 

Over this coming year, I see a bright future for each of us. I look forward to meeting you and your Chapters over the course of this year. Additionally, I hope to see each of you, in person next March, at SUBExcel. I hope you will join me and your fellow members at the finest education, leadership and peer-to-peer program for Subcontractors. 

Sincerely in your service, 

Brian K. Carroll
