My childhood, we were renters. My mother saved for well over a decade to buy a home. I was a teenager when that day finally came and I can remember so well, how excited she was. I know what home ownership means. And sadly, right now it is out of reach for far too many American families during the foreclosure crisis, I took on the big banks who exploited people in the housing market. And today corporate landlords buy hundreds of houses and apartments, then turn them around and rent them out at extremely high prices. I will fight for a law that cracks down on these practices. We will end America's housing shortage by building 3 million new homes and rentals. We should be doing everything we can to make it more affordable to buy a home. I'm Kamala Harris and I approve this message.
