Rep. Ted Lieu praises Harris’s fight to keep Americans housed in DNC speech

South Bay Congressman Ted Lieu, D-Torrance, stepped into the Democratic National Convention spotlight on Thursday evening as he touted Vice President Kamala Harris’s work to keep Californians housed and lower housing costs across the country.

The former computer science major opened his brief speech by cracking a joke as he marveled at how “large this AI generated crowd looks tonight.”

After raising some chuckles, he turned to a much more serious subject — the nation’s affordable housing crisis.
