U.S. Congress California 45

As a consumer protection attorney, Katie Porter has spent nearly twenty years fighting powerful interests and Wall Street banks on behalf of consumers and families. She’s a national leader in consumer protection and has won big victories against financial institutions who cheat consumers. In 2012, then California Attorney General Kamala Harris appointed Katie to be California’s watchdog against the banks. As an advocate, Katie has sought reforms that help families get a fair shake in our economy. She has been a key player in the fight against abusive credit card fees and, in 2010, helped pass important federal credit card protections for families. Katie will fight for a Medicare for All system, the right for women to make their own health decisions, an assault weapons ban, and comprehensive immigration reform that will provide a pathway to citizenship for those who are undocumented.
