Seven of the top 10 worst cities hit by foreclosure in the U.S. are in California. But struggling homeowners there have a powerful advocate in their corner: the state’s attorney general, Kamala Harris.

Harris knows what it’s like to be the underdog. She beat the odds to become the first woman and the first African American to be elected attorney general of California.
What it’s like to be the first? Harris said, “When I first was elected as (District Attorney) of San Francisco as the first woman I would get that question, and I’d say, ‘I don’t know how to answer that question because I’ve always been a woman,’ but I’m sure a man could do the job just as well.”
Ending the foreclosure crisis has become Harris’ signature issue. She often visits hard-hit neighborhoods. “You have to see and smell and feel the circumstances of people to really understand them,” Harris said.
