Rep. Katie Porter, D-Calif., is facing an FEC complaint from an anti-Biden PAC alleging she is continuing “to reap the benefits” of university staff affordable housing policies.
"Prior to becoming a Congresswoman, Porter was a law professor at the University of California Irvine ," the complaint said."As a UC Irvine law professor, she took advantage of a housing benefit for university employees and purchased a home in University Hills, an academic community on the UC Irvine campus developed to provide affordable housing to ‘eligible full-time employees.
"Thus, although Porter has not been an active ‘full-time’ employee at UC Irvine since 2019, she continues to reap the benefits of subsidized affordable housing in a pricey housing market," the complaint said. "Faculty members on approved leaves without pay remain UCI employees, and as such they can maintain their homes in University Hills," a UCI spokesperson said. "Those who take these leaves without pay generally do so to perform outside work in academia or industry … or in public service, as is the case with Porter."
Porter was also accused of making rude and racist comments to staff and"ridiculed people for reporting sexual harassment." "But let’s be clear, of course I want their best effort. Of course, I want my best effort," Porter said on the"Pod Save America" podcast."The American people deserve no less."
