Dear ASA Members,
What a year! It is hard to believe that a year has gone by since I began my term as your ASA President,
and I am so proud of all of us as an organization. We have gone through so much together, and I am
confident that each of us is stronger on the other side.
I would first like to thank the members of ASA. Your support has made everything possible. One of the
best parts of being a leader within the American Subcontractors Association is the ability to meet with,
talk to, and learn from the incredible people who are a part of this organization. You have all taught me
so much, and I thank you for that.
We have accomplished so much together. We walked the halls of Washington D.C. back in October to
continue the fight for the issues important to subcontractors. We’ve seen legislative victories in several
states that help protect our businesses. We stood together during SUBExcel in Las Vegas, learning
together as well as planning for the future. I am so excited to see where the future takes the members
of ASA.
I would also like to thank the members of the Board of Directors, as well as all of the leadership within
ASA for the opportunity to lead and serve as the 2019-2020 ASA President. You all believed in me and
allowed me to lead with confidence. I would like to thank all of the presidents who came before me for
providing a stellar example of how to lead this organization through a variety of times and
circumstances, and I appreciate the individual stamp each one put on ASA. Thank you for allowing me to
put my own on it as well.
Looking to the future, I know we are in good hands. Brian Cooper is someone I admire and respect, and
I am certain that his transition to the office of ASA President will be a smooth one. I ask that each of you
stand behind him as you have stood behind me. The American Subcontractors Association has an
incredible year ahead of it, and I’m excited to see where Brian takes this organization.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Anthony Brooks
ASA President 2019-2020
