Prior to joining GAS, Brubeck spent more than 21 years in a variety of roles at the national headquarters of Associated Builders and Contractors. Brubeck represented ABC before federal, state, and local lawmakers, regulators, the media, construction industry executives, and industry stakeholders.
Jaime Steve
A graduate of Cornell University and the New York Law School, Jaime Steve has been lobbying on behalf of energy and telecom firms in Washington, D.C., for 25 years. He was legislative director for the American Wind Energy Association for 12 years and spent another seven representing energy companies on Capitol Hill.
The Hill newspaper recognized Jaime as one of the “50 Best Business Lobbyists on Capitol Hill.”
About Us
GA Solutions principals Ben Brubeck and Jaime Steve lead the government affairs efforts. They are partnering with Innovative Association Solutions, who provides back-office support, accounting, IT, and marketing services.
"I have known and worked with Ben and Jaime for many years now, and I am thrilled to start this venture with them," IAS principal Tim Wagner said. "I am confident in their experience, knowledge, and passion for the work."
"The GA Solutions team is privileged to represent the hard-working folks who build and maintain America's vital infrastructure," Steve said. "We aim to work like hell to make their voices and concerns heard and acted on in Washington, D.C."
The utility construction industry will benefit tremendously from the new federal infrastructure law we worked on last year, but in many respects, the fight in our world is just beginning. Many challenges await, but so do many opportunities. Having a robust presence in Washington is more important than ever.
Who We Represent
GA Solutions represents the American Pipeline Contractors Association and the Power & Communication Contractors Association, and more recently has signed on to represent the National Utility Contractors Association, the State Technical College of Missouri and the Water and Sewer Distributors of America.
