Aili and Saskia Meet Senator Clinton!

I just heard from our Washington, D.C., delegation, and it sounds like it's been an exciting morning! This morning, GEB members Aili and Saskia met with Senator Hillary Clinton AND Speaker Pelosi's Chief of Staff, giving each of them a copy of our "Letter to Congress" issue. When Aili and Saskia told Senator Clinton how excited they are that she's running for president, she told them to "make sure to keep speaking up to elected officials" and that she hopes more people in government will "listen to girls."

I can't wait to see photos and to hear more! We'll keep you posted.

While all of the politicians you mention contribute well to our government, you have failed to mention any prominent Republicans! Please try and encourage both political parties in your posts!

Wow! I am so glad that Hillary Clinton feels that way. I really hope she wins the elections.

Our previous post regarding the trip reported upon the girls' meeting with Republican Senator Norm Coleman. New Moon strove to get as many Congressional meetings as possible and they are meeting with those Congresspeople who responded to their request.

There is more people in this world than hillary clinton. just because she is a women it doesn't mean that we should want her as our president. please consider all people. and maybe if there aren't lots of women running for president, then that means that most women aren't interested.
