    Eva Longoria, Hollywood actress, producer and philanthropist, spoke on Thursday, the final night of the Democratic convention.

    Drawing connections between her upbringing and that of Vice President Kamala Harris , Longoria explained that family helps Americans achieve their goals, knowing they would have to "touch every rung of the ladder to get ahead."

    She ended her time on stage by marking a new tagline for Harris' campaign. She adjusted the Spanish phrase "Si se puede," which means "Yes, we can," to "She se puede."
