US election: Harris, Trump push different plans to tackle America's housing crisis
Both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have made pledges to tackle America's housing crisis as part of their election campaigns. Property prices in the United States are now so expensive relative to wages, that a quarter of renters in the country are spending more than half of their income on just housing and utilities alone. Researchers say as many as seven million people a year face eviction, often due to not being able to afford to pay rent. CNA's Caroline Malone reports from one of the worst-hit cities of Baltimore, Maryland.
