Harris highlighted their focus on the future, discussing plans for affordable housing and criticizing Trump’s proposed tax breaks for the wealthy. She warned against the potential consequences of repealing the Affordable Care Act, stating, “We’re not going back.”
While the campaign faces challenges, including maintaining the Senate majority, Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer expressed optimism about their chances in the upcoming election. The convention also featured appearances from prominent figures such as Bernie Sanders and California Governor Gavin Newsom.
The ceremonial roll call at the convention highlighted the diversity within the Democratic Party, with delegates from various states expressing their support for Harris. The event was also attended by the “Tennessee Three” lawmakers who faced expulsion for protesting in favor of gun control.
