Speaking to an audience of 1,600 at the Boston Convention Center today, Hillary Clinton addressed equal pay, paid leave, having it all, and took a few moments to chime in on the national discussion of recent grand jury decisions in Ferguson and Staten Island. The sold-out event was the 10th annual Massachusetts Conference for Women.

Hillary Clinton Backs Obama’s Post-Ferguson Policy Proposals

By Perry Bacon Jr.

Hillary Clinton on Thursday endorsed President Barack Obama’s creation of a task force to examine police practices and encouraged the use of technology like body cameras to improve policing.

Her remarks about the police practices during a speech in Boston were her first in the wake of intense anger after grand juries opted against indicting police officers in the killings of black men in New York and Ferguson, Missouri.

“These tragedies did not happen in some far away place, they did not happen to some other people,” she said, speaking in Boston at a conference for women there. “These are our streets, our children, our fellow Americans and our grief.”

From Bill and Hillary Clinton on the Passing of Tom Menino

Rest in peace…

Statement from President and Secretary Clinton on the Passing of Tom Menino

Statement

Hillary and I were saddened to learn of the passing of Tom Menino. In his twenty years as Boston’s mayor, he became a legendary advocate and champion for all of Boston’s citizens in all of its neighborhoods; he believed with all his heart that at the end of the day, if things weren’t getting better in every corner of Boston, the job wasn’t done.

And nobody knew better than Tom how to get things done. He was a strong supporter and partner in my administration’s efforts to strengthen community policing, and to increase jobs and business opportunities in urban areas.

We’ll always remember and be grateful for Tom’s support, his friendship, and the clear joy he felt in a life devoted to public service. We were blessed to be able to say goodbye to Tom last week, and our thoughts and prayers are with Angela, his children, and his many friends and admirers.

Hillary Clinton Inspires at Simmons Leadership Conference

Posted in Appearances, Hillary Clinton, Hillary Rodham Clinton, Speaking Engagements, tagged Appearances, Boston, Hillary Clinton, Hillary Rodham Clinton, Massachusetts, Simmons Leadership Conference, Speaking Engagements on April 23, 2014| 5 Comments »

Telling her audience that sometimes as secretary of state she was treated as an honorary man, Hillary Clinton charmed her audience at the Simmons Leadership Conference in Boston today with advice, personal insights, and her signature humor.

Revisiting her 2008 primary campaign she reminisced about those who wanted not just to knock her down but to knock her out and advised the “iron my shirt” guys to iron it themselves. Crediting her parents and her participation in sports for helping her to build resilience, she advised young, perfectionist women to dare to compete and to choose “done” over “perfect.”

She closed to a standing ovation – as we could have predicted.

A few choice quotes and twitpics follow.

“Always surprising to me how many women think they have to be perfect. I rarely meet a young man who doesnt think he already is”

“Sometimes your critics can be your best advisors. Reflect with an open mind & don’t take [it] personally -grow”

“There’s an army of women and frankly, a very large group of older women who could make a real difference to America’s corporations, businesses, academia, politics — you name it,”

Note to Jimmy Fallon: If this is a man’s pantsuit, please wear this one on your show. The fringy pink tweed Chanel collar would give you a break from the ties and look just peachy on you!

Hillary Clinton reacts to Boston bombing

Posted by

CNN Political Unit (CNN)“I’ve been obsessed the last few days as I’m sure a number of you have been about the terrible violence and loss of life and injury in Boston,” she said. “Like so many Americans and those watching around the world, we saw ordinary citizens alongside first responders rushing into danger to help. It was a tragic terrible day, but it seemed to exemplify what Patriots Day really means, because we do better when we work together. Women and men, all of us across every line that is used to divide us.
