Katie Porter's Plan to Tackle the Affordable Housing Crisis

Published | Video Starts at 01:38

We're back to solving yesterday's problems tomorrow. Maybe. Washington insiders might not have a plan, but I do. Let's start with the easiest step. Let's create a housing committee. We currently lump housing issues into the Financial Services Committee, a body focused on Wall street, banking and financial markets. But housing is about so much more. It's about shelter, it's about well being. It's about opportunity, not just about Wall street profits. Housing should have a dedicated committee. (01:38–01:49)

CLAIM

Asserts that housing issues are currently managed by the Financial Services Committee.
