GREGG EDWARDS

Gregg Edwards is the founding President of the Center for Policy Research of New Jersey (CPR). Started in July 2002, CPR is an independent nonprofit organization that develops and promotes solutions to the public policy
challenges facing New Jersey and its residents. Gregg is recognized as an expert on NJ fiscal policy. He has authored numerous op-eds that have been published the major daily newspapers that circulate in New Jersey, including the New York Times and the Philadelphia Inquirer. He also is a frequent guest on television and radio public affairs programs.

Prior to forming CPR, Gregg was the Executive Director of the New Jersey Senate (1994-2002). In that role, he was intimately involved with writing laws that reduced automobile insurance costs, prohibited unfunded State mandates, deregulated the electric utility industry, and made government records more accessible to the public. He also was the chief-of-staff to U. S. Representative Bob Franks during Congressman Franks’s first term. A New Jersey native, Gregg was twice elected to the Hamilton Township Board of Education (Mercer Co.) and served as board president for two terms. He also served on Hamilton’s zoning and planning boards. Gregg is a graduate of Grinnell College (Grinnell, Iowa).
