Kimberly Edwards is an incumbent Democrat running for her second term to the Michigan House of Representatives for the 12th District. She currently serves on a variety of legislative committees including Education and Families, Children, and Seniors, and she is the majority vice chair for the Judiciary committee.
Edwards served in a historic legislative session with a Democratic majority that took major strides forward on key progressive issues. The Democratic majority passed the Reproductive Health Act, ensuring all Michiganders can make their own decisions about how and when to start a family, gave Michigan's kids free school breakfast and lunch and additional funds to support our students, and passed common sense gun violence prevention measures. Putting hard-working Michiganders' first, they also quintupled the Working Families Tax Credit, got rid of the retirement tax, and got rid of so-called "right to work" anti-worker legislation to ensure workers have bargaining power to stand up to greedy corporations. Edwards also helped expand the Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act and codify parts of the Affordable Care Act into law that protect LGBTQ+ Michiganders from discrimination in healthcare, housing, and the workplace.
Edwards was born and raised on the west side of Detroit but has lived in Eastpointe for a decade. Edwards is a social worker and mother of four, who believes her experience as a social worker equips her to not only connect with a community and identify their needs but also provide solutions that can help improve lives.
Edwards believes in creating an economy that works for all, where housing is affordable, and the wealthy pay their fair share. She also believes healthcare is a human right and supports protecting reproductive freedom. Edwards also supports criminal justice reform and fully funding public education, including working for universal preK. She will fight to support workers’ rights and protect our air, water, and environment.
Edwards has been endorsed by the following progressive partner organizations: American Federation of Teachers - Michigan, Clean Water Action, Equality Michigan Action Network, Michigan AFL-CIO, Michigan Education Association, Michigan League of Conservation Voters, Service Employees International Union - Michigan, Planned Parenthood Advocates of Michigan, Sierra Club - Michigan, and We the People - Michigan.
Edwards is running against MAGA Republican Randell J. Shafer. Shafer has spread right-wing conspiracy theories on climate change and immigration.
Kimberly Edwards is the most progressive choice in this race.
