Dems: The next gen

Los Angeles City Council President Eric Garcetti is among a group of young Democratic leaders being singled out at this week's Democratic Conventio nin Denber.
Garcetti, along with state Controller John Chiang and San Francisco District Attorney Kamala Harris, will be featured at a dinner Tuesday night for developing "innovative, bipartisan approaches" to problems facing local government.
"This is not just a historic convention, but also the beginning of a new era for the Democratic Party," Garcetti said. "Our generation will turn the page, toward a better future for our cities and our country with less partisanship and more participation, less ideological gridlock and more innovative solutions."
A number of other local officials from across the country will also be honored at the event.
Garcetti is the incoming chair of the Democratic Municipal Officials Association.
