Javier Mabrey

Javier is running for Colorado's House District 1 to fight for hard-working families like his own. Javier's mother raised Javier and his brother Thomas on her own, and her only source of income was her social security disability check. Javier and his family know what it means to struggle, to rely on food banks, and eventually face homelessness.

Javier dropped out of high school after his family dealt with housing instability and homelessness. He went back to school to become an advocate for families like his. He worked his way through community college washing dishes and delivering pizzas before going to Berkeley Law School to pursue a career representing tenants facing eviction. After law school, Javier helped found a non-profit focused on keeping Coloradans in their homes. Since 2020 Javier's organization has represented thousands of Coloradans facing eviction and successfully advocated for significant policy changes to help renters in Colorado. He now works as an eviction defense attorney and community organizer. Javier is running for the statehouse to continue his advocacy for low-income and working families. If elected to represent House District 1, Javier will fight for economic justice, affordable housing, racial justice, and universal health care.
