A handful of Californians are scheduled to speak today during the first day of the Democratic National Convention in Denver.

House Speaker and Permanent Chair of the 2008 Democratic National Convention Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco) and U.S. Rep. Doris Matsui (D-Sacramento), one of the convention parliamentarians, will both address the convention on Monday.

Congressional Hispanic Caucus members U.S. Reps. Joe Baca (D-San Bernardino) and Grace Napolitano (D-Santa Fe Springs) are also scheduled to speak on Monday, and a town hall forum on the economy will feature U.C. Berkeley professor Dr. Laura Tyson as one of the panelists.

The complete schedule has not yet been released for the rest of the week, but Tuesday speakers will include U.S. Rep. and assistant to the speaker of the House Xavier Becerra (D-Eagle Rock), U.S. Rep. Linda Sanchez (D-Cerritos) and U.S. Rep. Mike Honda (D-Campbell).
