Katherine Moore Porter[1] (born January 3, 1974) is an American attorney and politician serving as the U.S. Representative for California's 45th congressional district. She is a member of the Democratic Party and the first Democrat to be elected to represent California's 45th congressional district.

Early life and education

Porter was born on January 3, 1974, and grew up in a small farming community in Iowa.[2] Her father was a farmer-turned-banker.[3]

After graduating from Phillips Academy, Porter attended Yale University, where she majored in American studies.[4] Her undergraduate thesis was titled The Effects of Corporate Farming on Rural Community.[5]

Porter later attended Harvard Law School, where she studied under current U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, and graduated magna cum laude with her Juris Doctor in 2001.[3]

Career

In 2006, Porter joined the faculty of the University of Iowa College of Law.[6] In March 2012, California Attorney General Kamala Harris appointed Porter to be the state's independent monitor of banks in a nationwide $25 billion mortgage settlement.[7] As monitor, she oversaw the banks' implementation of $9.5 billion in settlement reforms for Californians.[8]

Porter is a tenured professor at the University of California, Irvine School of Law.[4]

Porter did not accept corporate PAC money in her bid for Congress.[14] She was endorsed by End Citizens United, a political action committee seeking to overturn the U.S. Supreme Court 2010 decision Citizens United v.
