Raw video: U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez addresses the Democratic National Convention

A refreshed Democratic Party is gathering for a valedictory speech from President Joe Biden, whose decision to end his reelection bid released newfound energy with Vice President Kamala Harris′ rise to the top of the ticket. The Democratic National Convention that began Monday in Chicago holds particularly high stakes for the party. If successful, Democrats will slingshot Harris toward a faceoff with Republican Donald Trump. U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was among those who spoke on the first night of the convention.
