Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is reportedly set to take the stage Wednesday night at the 2024 Democratic National Convention, which comes in the midst of a tight presidential race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump.

Pelosi is one of several notable speakers expected to address the convention on Wednesday, CNN and MSNBC reported, the same night vice presidential nominee Tim Walz is scheduled to deliver his acceptance speech. The convention comes a year after Pelosi completed her second term as speaker.

The Speaker Emerita was reportedly a major proponent in the push to replace Biden in the 2024 presidential race, telling the New Yorker in an interview released earlier this month that she was less than impressed with the current president's performance in June's debate against opponent Donald Trump.
