Austin Edwards is a civil rights leader and community advocate who has spent his career fighting for racial and economic justice. A son of Trenton and lawyer for the people, Austin is running for Mayor to clean up City Hall and make Trenton work for all of us.

 

When Austin’s family lost their home in the Great Recession, he saw firsthand what happens when our government abandons working-class people. Since then, he’s dedicated his life to fixing broken systems — rooting out corruption in government and protecting immigrants as Deputy Attorney General for New Jersey, and standing up to widespread police misconduct as President of the Trenton NAACP.

 

Now, Austin’s running for Mayor to bring good-paying jobs to Trenton, freeze the rent and bring down the cost of housing, stop crime before it starts, and clean up City Hall.
