- Representative Jasmine Crockett from Texas condemned Donald Trump as a "career criminal" during her address at the Democratic National Convention (DNC). She contrasted Trump's record of 34 felonies and two impeachments with Vice President Kamala Harris' credentials as a prosecutor and former attorney general of California.
- Crockett, the first Texan to speak on the DNC's main stage, highlighted her remarkable political ascent and role as a messenger for Democratic priorities. Previously a public defender, she was instrumental in a quorum break in the Texas House to stall the passage of Republican-led voting legislation.
- In her speech, Crockett emphasized Harris' commitment to civil rights, including the mandate for police officers to wear body cameras. She also expressed gratitude to Harris for her support when Crockett was new to Congress, sharing an emotional moment where Harris comforted her.
- Other Texans featured at the DNC included Lina Hidalgo and Amanda Zurawski, who advocated for abortion rights. Zurawski shared her personal experience with restrictive abortion laws, underscoring the significance of voting for women's lives. The event also featured notable Democrats like President Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton, who praised Harris' contributions as vice president.
