Democrats head into DNC with Harris on the ticket
The stage is set after a dramatic change at the top of the ticket.
CHICAGO - President Joe Biden is slated to speak at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago Monday night.
He'll take the stage to make the case for Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz.
Dr. Jill Biden will also deliver remarks on Monday night. The exact time has not yet been announced.
In addition to highlighting the Harris-Walz vision for the future and the stakes of this election, the president will detail the successes of the Biden-Harris Administration.
Harris will formally accept her nomination on Thursday. The convention committee announced Sunday that several other prominent Democrats will join Biden in addressing the party throughout the week.

Former President Bill Clinton is expected to address the DNC Wednesday night.
The Clintons endorsed Harris quickly after Biden exited the race.
"We join millions of Americans in thanking President Biden for all he has accomplished, standing up for America time and again, with his North Star always being what’s best for the country," they said in their joint statement. "We are honored to join the President in endorsing Vice President Harris and will do whatever we can to support her."
Clinton’s speech is expected to come just before Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, gives his address.
President Bill Clinton speaks during the 2019 Bloomberg Global Business Forum at The Plaza Hotel on September 25, 2019 in New York City.
Gov. Tim Walz, Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jefferies will all address the party at the convention.
The above speakers were confirmed by the 2024 DNC Committee on Sunday morning. A full list of speakers has not yet been released, and the official schedule has not been announced.
The convention begins Monday, Aug. 19 and continues through Thursday, Aug. 22.
