Elizabeth Warren: If Trump Wants to Unrig the Economy, I’m In

The mission of the Democrats on the Senate Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee is to deliver what Americans have asked for in election after election: unrigging the economy to make life more affordable for working families.

I’m ready to work with Chairman Tim Scott, Donald Trump and business leaders whenever they support policies that rebuild the middle class, advance our economic and national security, and fight the corruption of those who seek to use government to enrich themselves. We have at least four specific tasks ahead.

First, we must lower costs and improve access to financial services. Last year housing costs reached the highest level in decades. Conservatives who believe this is a supply problem are right. Liberals who believe price fixing and corporate landlords are culprits are also right. Congress has been asleep at the switch on both fronts.
