(Sacramento, CA) – The American Subcontractors Association of California (ASAC) is pleased to announce it has retained the lobbying firm of McHugh Koepke Padron Government Relations (MKP) to replace their long-time lobbyist, Skip Daum, who is retiring after 25 years of representing the association.
After an exhaustive search process, ASAC is excited about forging a working relationship with MKP, relying on their advocacy expertise for associations and other non-profit organizations.
“We have our fingers crossed that we’ll have another 25-year relationship with MKP, like we did with Skip Daum. While we’re all going to miss Skip, and it will take many people to fill his shoes, we’re excited about the possibilities with MKP, and look forward to a successful partnership,” stated Richard Bright, Chief Executive Officer of ASA.
Shari McHugh of MKP added, “We know Skip, and we’re honored that ASAC chose us to take on the interests of subcontractors and suppliers in California. We have the experience and energy to successfully represent their interests and concerns to the legislators.”

The firm’s partners represent more than 40 years of lobbying experience in Sacramento.
