All the years I've watched Ms. Porter, she has never talked about a problem without having some solution for it. If I were American, I'd want her for president.
That’s not the issue. The government subsidizes the purchase of existing homes and we allow banks to create money for their purchase. This drives up the real cost. We need rebasement. Wall Street wouldn’t buy them if they couldn’t get bank credit to do so.
You do know several Democrats like Pelosi anda Republicans just the same were doing legal insider trading with stocks with laws that permitted politicians to do so until they were caught. Guess what Katie had to say about? NOTHING.

Exactly. When my employees are paying the same or more for a rented 1 bedroom apartment in a bad neighborhood, than I pay on the mortgage for my 4 bedroom, 2 bath home - it's a serious problem. It's absolutely unacceptable.
@maargenbx1454 more homes on the market will gradually bring down rent. It's been on the rise for so long because there haven't been enough getting built. 2ndly. Her addressing hedge funds buying swaths of homes. That is directly tied to rent. If it was penalized there would be less owned by the corporations. It's a multi pronged approach. And I'd a committee existed for these issues in theory they would have better oversite over housing and rent control could be a real thing.
@@bonkgameingHer fix for renters is to stop corporate America from buying up (with cash, at asking price or more) all of the starter homes from the housing market and turning them into rentals, leaving none on the market for lower income folks to buy, forcing those folks to become renters.
Thank you, Congresswoman Katie Porter. I have grandchildren living at home trying to start college and worring about how they are going to live. Thank you for caring about all of us.
She says many good things, but they are misdirected. The fundamental problem is LOCAL ZONING BOARDS. . Nobody wants an apt or duplex on their nice street, so they tell the local zoning board not to change things.
@@earlysda why are we building more Apts and duplexes. We deserve houses to put our families in. Not fucki g apartment buildings that stack us up like sardines or duplexes where you have to have your portion of the house connected to someone else's. we need houses and land. There is plenty of it.

Not "one of the biggest" - it is the biggest issue facing us. The cost of shelter has risen far beyond affordability, and impacts every other thing in our lives.
Yeah but its not really full plan. 1. Tax credit for first home buying. Fyi these already exist - in Canada, Australia and UK and this initiative has failed miserably...... historically what happens is the credit amount gets added to the home price - so home that would cost $400K with a 10% credit - now costs you $440K because the credit is also doubled for the homeowner and thus it is in their interest to increase the home price to get a higher credit. 2. There is a reason 3D printed materials are not listed in major building codes. A major problem with printed homes you will see is that they lack structural components of a building meeting engineering standards. It is lunacy to just throw out IBC, IRC, AIA, ASTM, and ACI to reduce cost - this leads to SAFETY HAZARDS - not a good idea. 3. While it is good that Washington is cutting out large financial institutions from buying up properties, a major cause of this crisis is zoning - which Mrs Porter failed to once talk about! How in the world does one act like they have solutions for housing yet never once bring up zoning? The reason Mrs Porter we dont have multi-unit housing like aparatments is because apartments get zonned seperately from housing, where in the US most populated cities incentivize and in many cases mandate the existence of single family housing zones over any other zoning types for housing. Granted this is a problem that has to be solved at the state and local levels of government, but to not even acknowledge this problem is ludicrious.....
Ms. Porter, here is an idea, make home ownership tax-free for primary owner-occupied properties. No property tax, no income tax on mortgage payments, or interest. All the government would have to do is reduce the budget to make this possible. This could be done my eliminating some government agencies. There is no need for a committee, this will work, for everyone. (Except Big Government democrats.)
The house I paid $80k for 13 years ago, is worth $250-300k in the current market. Two houses on my street sold for over $250k this year. Bigger houses that I looked at buying 13 years ago, we in the $150-200k range, are now worth $350-450k. Home prices are absolutely ridiculous.

@@BDThomas Congressional records that nobody reads. Addresses should be given to an engaged audience. I don't care if it's just Congressional aids that can make it... People should be there, and the offices that don't send a representative should face consequences for opting out of the process on topics they don't have interest in, especially when it pertains to the economy, housing, food, foreign policy, budgets, and civil liberties. Our "representation" has been an absolute farce since the 50's.
I'm curious about this. Would you prefer to outlaw companies or limit them? Because as a homeowner, I'd prefer to rent out my home when i buy another instead of selling it. The reasoning? Holding it for my future kids. What are your thoughts?
@novousabbott4926 I think it is fine for one family/person to own two single family homes. They're not the problem. No company/corporation should own any single family dwellings
If corporations are going to own single family homes, they should be required to either have them filled at a government monitored market rate and if they sit vacant, the company is charged said going rate of rent to go towards affordable housing programs. They'll either get them filled, or start getting charged money and will lower prices quickly. And finally, if they choose to make the home qualify for the 'affordable housing' tag, then they get a check cut to make up the difference
Katie Porter brought this forward approaching everyone equally, both parties, 4 months ago. This is what working for your constituents, the people, looks like. Thank you Ms. Porter.
you give me hope for the future, every time you speak, on any matter, its nothing but good, researched and well put, real issues we all deal with. thank you
Yes… her plan of making housing more affordable, by forming a committee to make housing more affordable and then spending a bunch of government money on making housing more affordable seems fool proof. Spending a bunch of government money with no real plan or understanding of economics has gone really well thus far… let’s keep doing that. Affordable housing, but eggs will cost $37/dozen. Great plan.
Keep it up Katie! We love you!🥰 Wow, a truly important thing, and the gallery is empty! If it was about Hunter it would be full! Our priorities are so screwed up!🤯

Also in Chicago, Brandon Johnson's title transfer tax that lowered title transfers below 1M and raised it for properties over that would have kept many rentiers out of the market lowering the asset values of housing making it more affordable for the rest of us.

@earlysda That isn't always the problem, but even if it is in some places, that's why Katie's first proposed step was making a "housing committee." A Housing Committee would expand on the stated goals, solve problems like zoning, &get funding in order to make it all happen. May be wishful thinking but they need to start somewhere. The status quo isn't working.
A seismic shift and tectonic transformation! He was so authentic and Dr. Biden was absolutely lovely, stylish, gracious and so relatable, as always. You know, they walk in their stunning truth, bending the arc of the moral universe, mending the torn fabric of a deeply divided nation, and pulling all of the levers in their wheelhouse as they finally beat Medicare while living their best lives! Recently, they were seen counting the arrows in their quiver and monitoring the tools in their toolbox at their favorite hidden gem where the food is simply to-die-for; that was so empowering! Jaws literally dropped, and the devotees and acolytes were overcome with convulsive paroxysms of heartbreaking inconsolable sobbing, as they fell to the floor in unprecedented awe, worship and wonder, being in such proximity to their iconic savior, who's building back better, as an inflection point of our sacred, sacrosanct and sanctified democracy!

@Detrumpificator4377I had to turn it off, the first thing I thought to myself, Trump for weeks complained that he wanted a drug test, did he actually have somebody do something to President Biden‘s drink. what did he drink to make him so groggy? then, I’m thinking somebody should dial 911 because this is definitely not our Joe! I heard him the next day in the Carolinas and he finally gave us Joe! I’ve been waiting for him to show up. He’s finally here and hopefully he stays. I am so disappointed in the democrats that haven’t been listening to President Biden previously to know something was way off.
But we give corporations more power in this country then the people with less accountability. All they care about is money and the people are expected to give their money to them are call it a retirement plan. Donald trump has proved the truth has no significance in politics anymore.
They have their million dollar homes & government security to pay for them. Care nothing for working people who are barely able to pay for monthly needs.
Katie Porter is eloquent and has great ways to show reality when she discusses ideas. She also has a lot more class than some other members of Congress. She is a breath of fresh air, and actually WORKS for her constituents. Katie is needed in the House, and later, in the Senate!
My parents bought their home, $65.000 with $ 5.000 as a down payment. (In California) In the 70's. Now it's impossible to get a reasonable home for less than a million here. It's ridiculous.
The reason why housing pricing are still going up with the rates is because corporations are buying them not people with the intention to rent them out to YOU; so you’ll never own.
How about politicians and their own greed? In her own state of California they are raising taxes of gas by .50 starting tomorrow. Think that will lower the cost of anything? They spent $600,000 per apartment for the homeless in LA for 250 people. How is that helping us?
Thank you, Rep. Porter, for taking on this issue. As a disabled American living on Social Security I worry daily about what I will do if my housing situation changes. I certainly can’t purchase a home; I can’t afford California rents, even if I got a roommate; I don’t want to leave my State, my county, my doctors. These fears keep me up at night. I’m so glad you’re on top of it, Congresswoman.
All the years I've watched Ms. Porter, she has never talked about a problem without having some solution for it. If I were American, I'd want her for president.
I don't know about her experience level on foreign policy, that's a big part of being President. That said, I'd definitely vote for her.
I wish. It's impossible for something like that to happen though :/
If she ran for president, I would vote for her. We need many more like her in our gov.
Maybe VP, definitely Senate.

I'm with Rep. Katie Porter! Pass the Hedge Fund Control of American Homes Act now! Stop pricing the lower and middle class out of home ownership!
That’s not the issue. The government subsidizes the purchase of existing homes and we allow banks to create money for their purchase. This drives up the real cost. We need rebasement. Wall Street wouldn’t buy them if they couldn’t get bank credit to do so.

How is it that if I don't go to work or not do my JOB I get fired and congress people can do $#_$_#t all year or even worse, propose and pass crappy and dangerous ideas and stay at their jobs. I don't understand Americans. This is the only congress lady that is apparently doing her job and NO ONE is listening
@@BDThomas Congressional records that nobody reads. Addresses should be given to an engaged audience. I don't care if it's just Congressional aids that can make it... People should be there, and the offices that don't send a representative should face consequences for opting out of the process on topics they don't have interest in, especially when it pertains to the economy, housing, food, foreign policy, budgets, and civil liberties.
Our "representation" has been an absolute farce since the 50's.
You Katie are a national treasure.
❤
No more committees, Katie.
Outlaw corporations from owning single family homes.
I'm curious about this.
Would you prefer to outlaw companies or limit them?
Because as a homeowner, I'd prefer to rent out my home when i buy another instead of selling it.
The reasoning? Holding it for my future kids.
What are your thoughts?
@novousabbott4926 I think it is fine for one family/person to own two single family homes. They're not the problem. No company/corporation should own any single family dwellings
@@devastatn i can understand that. $10 says that if something like that passed into law, lobbyist would try to change the definition of a home!
Not far enough. Everything smaller than a fourplex ought to be confiscated if it’s not owner occupied.
If corporations are going to own single family homes, they should be required to either have them filled at a government monitored market rate and if they sit vacant, the company is charged said going rate of rent to go towards affordable housing programs.
They'll either get them filled, or start getting charged money and will lower prices quickly. And finally, if they choose to make the home qualify for the 'affordable housing' tag, then they get a check cut to make up the difference
Yes! Stop corporations from purchasing, for cash, single family homes! Almost no families can compete with cash offers over the asking price!
Youre my hero!!!!
Katie Porter brought this forward approaching everyone equally, both parties, 4 months ago. This is what working for your constituents, the people, looks like. Thank you Ms. Porter.
I hope katie becoming the president one day. She is so much better than most other politicians.
Katie for president NOW!
She is so much better than all other politicians combined.
you give me hope for the future, every time you speak, on any matter, its nothing but good, researched and well put, real issues we all deal with. thank you
You go Katie were behind you 100% keep talking sense may be something will sink in
Awesome woman, wise, educated, well-informed, researcher of our nation's interests!
Thank you Katie Porter , one of the only people in Congress actually working for the American taxpayer. End Hedge Fund Control of American Homes Act!
Same issues here in Canada. Her solutions would work here too.
Wow, a representative talking about a REAL issue, and not just guns, gays and grievances.
Yes… her plan of making housing more affordable, by forming a committee to make housing more affordable and then spending a bunch of government money on making housing more affordable seems fool proof. Spending a bunch of government money with no real plan or understanding of economics has gone really well thus far… let’s keep doing that. Affordable housing, but eggs will cost $37/dozen. Great plan.
@@Mluther65 Wait... that's LITERALLY your take-away?!?!
@@Max14163 Literally. This woman is a buffoon. I honestly thought it was satire, that’s why I clicked.
We need you Katie. Hope you stay vocal, reclaim your seat.
Katie! Help❤❤❤❤ run for president quickly!
Thank you for caring, Ms. Porter.
i wish she was running in arizona so i could vote for her
I’m tired of corporate greed and vie for power. I’m pulling for you Katie. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Katie Porter is a brilliant woman! California is so proud of her! ❤
With an abundance of Empathy, Intelligence, Tenacity, etc.!!!!
GO KATIE GO!!!
The United States appreciates Katie Porter. So do people from other nations that respect her.
We love her so much, I’m in MA.
I wish she was going to stay in DC, her leaving hurts is all.
Where was California when she was running for Senate?
Not all of us in California claim her. I do not. Adam Schiff was proof of that.
You Go Girl! I like the way you think! We need more like you! Cheers from Alaska!! Katie Porter for President!
Keep it up Katie! We love you!🥰 Wow, a truly important thing, and the gallery is empty! If it was about Hunter it would be full! Our priorities are so screwed up!🤯
Now if we had more members in congress with a brain and heart like yours, this country would be such a better place.
It would be a total shithole.
@@mikealext Oh you mean like what happens everytime when a republican gets elected into office. 😆
@@CyframerEX Democrats run all the ghettos.
Please quit voting and posting until you educate yourself
@@robertfetrow4612 Katie doesn't miss, OP is correct.
Ban the sale of SFH to corporations
Man, I love Katie Porter and especially what she does for the people.
Rep. Porter, we need u in congress. No one can pull out that whiteboard and school CEOs the way u can. You can get ur point across very well and it helps make it easy for voters to understand. You’re the only one who even mentions the struggles many single moms r experiencing and one of the few who fights for the little ppl. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE RUN AGAIN IN 2YRS!! 🙏WE NEED U IN CONGRESS!! ❤️
Katie has wisdom. Plans. Solutions. She, makes things happen. So simple too. If they dont act on this & start somewhere, theyll be voted out. Change is inevitable.
Thank You !!! Every Hero Needs A Hero !!!
America is so thankful for your Amazing and Intelligent Service to this Country !
Thank you Ms. Porter for actually doing something and advocating for the people!
Thank God for Katie Porter.
We have unaffordable housing, and a supreme court who made homelessness illegal.
Literal dystopia.
You can afford to live almost anywhere you want as long as you work long enough to never be home.
literally socialism that u voted for😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@TRUMPeterswan1624 bruh stop with the misinformation this was in place since 2004, plus they just had a bipartisan deal that fell apart on both sides. youre blaming one side like a moron who has no deductive reasoning skills.
@@TRUMPeterswan1624Unrestrained capitalism is socialism? Moron opinion.
@@TRUMPeterswan1624 It can't be socialism if we're living in a capitalist country....
Yes! She always has thoughtful, smart answers.
In my neighborhood in Chicago, rents have DOUBLED in less than a decade. How many people do you know whose salaries have doubled In less than a decade?
Chicago as well and there ain't no place to live for less than 800/mo that ain't an SRO.... I do live in a gucci neighborhood by 31'st and Ashland but it way out priced for what it is.
Also in Chicago, Brandon Johnson's title transfer tax that lowered title transfers below 1M and raised it for properties over that would have kept many rentiers out of the market lowering the asset values of housing making it more affordable for the rest of us.
Whom? CEOs. Proably.
Politicians, because they vote their own raises.
The government needs to ban foreigners and investors from owning single family homes, period!
God Bless Katie Porter!!! Thank you for doing this critical work for Americans! I wish more people in Government shared your commitment to improving the country. Katie is a treasure!
Representative Katie Porter.. l absolutely admire your strength, knowledge and love for people!! Thank You!!! Thank you for fighting for us!!🌍🤞❤️
Thank you Rep. Porter!!
Representative Porter, you are amazing. Thank you!
Someone smart who actually thinks and who gets it. A true treasure.
SHE IS THE BEST F*CKING REPRESENTATIVE IN THE ENTIRE CONTINENT.
100% agree.
Totally!
Deserves way more love than she gets. I wish she was in my district. Can’t wait for her to get into the senate for CA
One of the best for sure. There are a handful of really impressive people
i wont give her all that yet, but i like her:) theres cruz, hageman and kennedy. but i put her with them. the good squad!
YES. Legislate for the masses. Let millionaires take care of themselves--they certainly aren't making sure all Americans have food and roofs.
Why is it their responsibility to take care of you?
@@youtubesucks1499
It's NOT.
But it is the job of our legislature to level the playing field when Americans are being mercilessly gouged as is the case right NOW...
@@nsidor1234 A level playing field?
What opportunities do people not have?
College?
Starting a business?
Running for office?
So what level playing field?
It's already level.

Nope, it's NOT.

Assuming all these things about me and my spending habits
(all INCORRECT by the way) reveals how clueless you really are.
That being said,
if I were an investor, I would expect to be taxed at a fair rate on those investments,
which simply is not the case today.
In a world where your
'investor class' pays less taxes on their income than teachers, nurses and the like,
a correction is definitely needed...
Love this lady!!!!
We need Speaker Porter, Senator Porter, President Porter. So few left like her.
Yes, so few Democrats left that aren't so far left they are marxist. Bring back the moderates that actually have a thought process and NOT an agenda.
Yes!
She says many good things, but doesn't touch the root of the problem. The fundamental problem is LOCAL ZONING BOARDS.
@earlysda That isn't always the problem, but even if it is in some places, that's why Katie's first proposed step was making a "housing committee."
A Housing Committee would expand on the stated goals, solve problems like zoning, &get funding in order to make it all happen.
May be wishful thinking but they need to start somewhere. The status quo isn't working.
@@shawna3350 shawna, I wish you were right, but what she is calling for is more top-down laws, while the problem should be solved bottom-up.
I wish it was Katie debating Trump last night.
I wish anyone was debating trump last night.
She wouldn’t let him get away with his lies
A seismic shift and tectonic transformation! He was so authentic and Dr. Biden was absolutely lovely, stylish, gracious and so relatable, as always. You know, they walk in their stunning truth, bending the arc of the moral universe, mending the torn fabric of a deeply divided nation, and pulling all of the levers in their wheelhouse as they finally beat Medicare while living their best lives! Recently, they were seen counting the arrows in their quiver and monitoring the tools in their toolbox at their favorite hidden gem where the food is simply to-die-for; that was so empowering! Jaws literally dropped, and the devotees and acolytes were overcome with convulsive paroxysms of heartbreaking inconsolable sobbing, as they fell to the floor in unprecedented awe, worship and wonder, being in such proximity to their iconic savior, who's building back better, as an inflection point of our sacred, sacrosanct and sanctified democracy! Black Lives Matter! No Borders, No Walls! Trans Rights Are Human Rights! Unalive Uterine Parasites, Now! Dismantle And Defund Law Enforcement!
@Detrumpificator4377I had to turn it off, the first thing I thought to myself, Trump for weeks complained that he wanted a drug test, did he actually have somebody do something to President Biden‘s drink. what did he drink to make him so groggy? then, I’m thinking somebody should dial 911 because this is definitely not our Joe! I heard him the next day in the Carolinas and he finally gave us Joe! I’ve been waiting for him to show up. He’s finally here and hopefully he stays. I am so disappointed in the democrats that haven’t been listening to President Biden previously to know something was way off.
How do you debate a liar?
I'm from Sweden and I desperately wish for a politician like this.
Is it just me, or the country needs to wake up and recognize that she is a true representative first, for the people and not just a politician?
But we give corporations more power in this country then the people with less accountability.
All they care about is money and the people are expected to give their money to them are call it a retirement plan.
Donald trump has proved the truth has no significance in politics anymore.
I love this sister! Congress does not have a plan because they do not care.
Amen!!!
They have their million dollar homes & government security to pay for them. Care nothing for working people who are barely able to pay for monthly needs.
Love her much. Keep grinding because we need it
Katie Porter is eloquent and has great ways to show reality when she discusses ideas. She also has a lot more class than some other members of Congress. She is a breath of fresh air, and actually WORKS for her constituents. Katie is needed in the House, and later, in the Senate!
Thank you Katie! You are part of the growing number of very good legislators! THANK YOU for your work! ❤
Absolutely true that we need more good legislators, but we will never get there without term limits.
@@fbucking Term limits get rid of the good ones too ..that makes no sense.

Thank you Katie Porter, she cares about the people. ❤
What a beautiful and great person! God Bless ❤️ ❤❤ ✝️ ✝️ ✝️
My parents bought their home, $65.000 with $ 5.000 as a down payment. (In California) In the 70's. Now it's impossible to get a reasonable home for less than a million here. It's ridiculous.
The reason why housing pricing are still going up with the rates is because corporations are buying them not people with the intention to rent them out to YOU; so you’ll never own.
Corporate greed is a big problem!!! Power and greed will be the demise of America!!! Love Katie Porter!!! Vote 🗳 blue!
This country is already dead.
@@EatYourPancakesDummieOnly if you let the corporations kill it. You can still vote. Use your power while you can.💙
Blue made the problem, so yeah, they can probably fix it...
@@earlysdaIn my opinion, it's better to try to fix problems than to sit around whining, blaming others, and doing nothing.
How about politicians and their own greed? In her own state of California they are raising taxes of gas by .50 starting tomorrow. Think that will lower the cost of anything? They spent $600,000 per apartment for the homeless in LA for 250 people. How is that helping us?
Katie...Please run for President.
Thank you, Rep. Porter, for taking on this issue. As a disabled American living on Social Security I worry daily about what I will do if my housing situation changes. I certainly can’t purchase a home; I can’t afford California rents, even if I got a roommate; I don’t want to leave my State, my county, my doctors. These fears keep me up at night. I’m so glad you’re on top of it, Congresswoman.
