[ [link removed] ]Katie Porter for Governor



John,

Today, I want to share a bit about my childhood and how those experiences
shaped my vision for helping working families.

I grew up in rural Iowa, where my parents, two siblings, and I lived in a
two-bedroom, one-bath house. My father was a farmer and my mother was a
small business owner.

As I grew older, I saw neighbors and friends lose everything as Iowa’s
economy collapsed during the farm crisis of the 1980s. That experience
shaped how I see the economy, which is set up to bail out the rich and
powerful while working Americans are left behind.

I got scholarships to attend good schools, but I was reminded that other
students came from different backgrounds and didn’t have to work multiple
jobs through college. Ever since then, I’ve never forgotten my roots
growing up.

Those lessons taught me that government should stand with working
families, not the powerful.

That’s why I’m running for California’s next governor: to make it easier
to afford a home, find good schools and child care, get quality health
care, and to hold special interests accountable so our economy works for
people—not the well-connected.

families and win next year?

Thank you,

Katie
