Congresswoman Katie Porter has shown time and time again that she prepares carefully for congressional hearings and yet industry executives keep trying to patronize and snow her and she keeps putting them in their place as happened again recently.
A Big Oil exec told me I had a "misconception" about a special tax break polluters get that other businesses don't.
So, after explaining the deduction to him, I offered to write it out of the tax code if that what he wants. Just let me know! pic.twitter.com/ML25PMnrg5

They never seem to learn that she does her homework.
Every time Katie Porter puts one of these high powered types I see again that money and power don’t mean smart.
Our elected representatives should all be as well-educated and intelligent as Porter. It’s sad that she’s such a standout from the herd of low-end clowns thay surround her.
