Mrs. Hillary Clinton’s Accomplishments as a Senator representing New York.
There is a general allegation by her opponents that Mrs. Hillary had not done anything as a senator. Here is the list what she did as the Senator of New York
It's
important to note that the following list is only a small percentage of the bills
Hillary Clinton introduced, most of-which passed easily. They serve as an
example to surpass all rumors and flat-out lies about where her concerns are,
what she deems most important and who she represents.
Hillary Clinton
introduced to Congress as a Senator in the US Senate.
Over and over Hillary has proposed legislation regulating Wall Street and Corporate America - including Monsanto, while her basic platform is "equality and fairness for all Americans"... especially those being suppressed by the current system: women, minorities, the poor, children, the education system, etc..
Her policies & platform include: stopping global warming, a fair health system, safe food, veterans rights, ending corporate abuse, ending lack of opportunity, global peace and fighting for the rights of every single citizen of the United States of America.
