Common Good Politics with Congresswoman Katie Porter

Congresswoman Katie Porter joins hosts Doug Pagitt and Robb Ryerse to talk about politics for the common good and that legendary white board.

 

Congresswoman Katie Porter represents the California's 45th Congressional District and believes our democracy and government should reflect the people of America and serve their needs, not special interests or corporate donors. As a progressive, she’s a leader in the fight to protect taxpayers and crack down on waste, fraud, and abuse. In Congress, she’s a key voice for ending political corruption, increasing government transparency, and holding leaders of both parties accountable. She’s matched her commitment to transparency with concrete action by hosting regular town halls and publicly posting a list of meetings she takes.
