Clinton Unveils New Autism Initiative as Part of Iowa Tour

And since it was announced that he was going to be campaigning for his wife, Donald Trump has been tweeting like insane about Clinton’s past indiscretions. “While most states require private health insurance plans in their state-based exchange to cover the autism services, Florida does not”. Bernie Sanders, her chief Democratic rival, as unelectable. She ends her Monday with an organizing event in Des Moines.

Georgia Republicans have long rejected the mandates in President Barack Obama’s healthcare overhaul, but they managed to unite behind an insurance requirement for autism coverage in 2015. And several of the people here who I interviewed said that they were leaving inspired, that they learned new things about Hillary Clinton that they can then use as ammunition to try to convince others to vote for her. And also, he’s her husband.

The event marked the former president’s debut solo appearance for his wife’s campaign, part of a broader strategy to deploy Bill Clinton publicly in the run-up to early voting next month.

She enjoys strong support among Latino and black voters who are pivotal in Nevada and SC, the third and fourth contests, but consecutive losses might diminish her standing.

“Today I’m rolling out a policy to try to help families”, Clinton said. There’s no campaign talk this time of a “co-presidency”, but if Ms. Clinton is elected as the first female USA president it will also be the first time a former president has returned to the White House as first spouse and Mr. Clinton’s role will be unprecedented. Her team is also dispatching backers like Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, a top adviser during her 2008 campaign, and actress Lena Dunham of HBO’s “Girls” in the coming days.

“I was hoping to hear some more details, and I don’t know if what she is proposing is realistic to get passed in Congress right now”, Moore explained. “That’s a motivating factor”. She warns that a Republican president would repeal Obama’s health care law, slash taxes on the wealthy and undercut executive actions on gun violence and pollution. She puts it this way: She wants to work on the problems that keep people up at night.

More than 3.5 million Americans are believed to have autism spectrum disorder, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate one in 68 children in the USA have autism spectrum disorder. Last month, she was in Iowa to roll out her proposal for a billion annual research fund to find the cure for Alzheimer’s. And I think, again, she’s given an agenda, it is not all of her, but I think she really works hard and I think she does a good job.

“Why would he go after your stamina, rather than Bill [Clinton’s] stamina, or George McGovern’s stamina, or anybody else’s except you’re a woman?” asked Matthews, noting that Trump is in fact older than Clinton.

Hillary supporters say her background as the Secretary of State, a Senator, and the First Lady make her the most qualified candidate. One of her stops brought her to Davenport.

“She’s got the proven ability to get the best out of a hard situation”, he said to a group of volunteers in Dover.
