Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham is slated to speak about health care Tuesday at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, according to her office.

Lujan Grisham’s office didn’t specify when the governor would speak, but noted that she is a former state secretary of health under former Gov. Bill Richardson. Lujan Grisham, who is a party delegate for New Mexico, will be joined by three of her staff members, with travel expenses covered by the governor’s political action committee. 

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Lujan Grisham will also take part in a panel discussion with other Democratic female governors, hosted by Seinfeld co-star and star of the political comedy Veep Julia Louis-Dreyfus. 

Vice President Kamala Harris officiated Lujan Grisham’s wedding to Manny Cordova in 2022. 

Lujan Grisham won’t be the only politico traveling from the Land of Enchantment to Chicago.

Mayor Tim Keller is also attending the DNC this week as a delegate and in a statement said he is honored to be a representative for New Mexico.  

“I look forward to the opportunity to play a role in this important process,” Keller said. “This will be an exciting one!”
