United States service employees union, with 2 million members, endorses Clinton

Bernie Sanders and former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley support $15. Refuting Sanders, she said she “represented NY on 9/11 when we were attacked”.

“When we were attacked, where were we attacked?” “It adds even more momentum to the Clinton campaign that has already distanced itself from the rest of the field”, Kefauver said in an email. The union’s efforts have been instrumental in getting higher minimum wages in Los Angles, New York, San Francisco and Seattle. CBS moderators wasted no time bringing up the outrage, reading a tweet from a viewer mid-debate questioning whether mentioning the attacks was appropriate when talking about campaign finance.

“The truth is Hillary Clinton and all of us in the Congress did everything that we could to try to rebuild NY City after that devastating attack”, Sanders said.

But that opened him up to criticism from Clinton, who noted that America is different from Denmark. “Now maybe they’re dumb, but I don’t think so”. “She’s put forward the strongest policies on Wall Street reform”, he said (while sporting an Equilibrium Capital-branded fleece).

Another campaign spokeswoman, Jennifer Palmieri, came to the defense of the comments and Clinton’s record on Wall Street, telling Bloomberg, “There are times when she’s worked very productively with Wall Street, and 9/11 is an example of that. There were also times when she thought they were going too far or pursuing reckless behavior, and she didn’t hesitate to speak out”.

Taxes have become the latest flashpoint in the race for the Democratic nomination, with Clinton charging that Sanders supports raising taxes to pay for his plans and the Vermont senator responding that the former secretary of state is not being realistic with her proposals.

“It is a stretch”.

“It’s truly stupid, because if you look at the way things have worked, if you look at what Obama got in 2008 and what we then did, if you look at those of us who pushed through a bill over the greater objection of the financial industry, there’s no argument there”, said Frank, who was joined on a conference call set up by the Clinton campaign by Gary Gensler, the former chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and now a Clinton campaign adviser.

Speaking at a college here, Sanders pointed to areas where he disagrees with Clinton – including financial regulation and health care – and charged that her roster of political endorsements makes her “a candidate of the establishment”.

At the debate, Clinton’s main rival, Senator Sanders, pressed Clinton on the fact that her top campaign contributors were from Wall Street (leading to Clinton’s invoking 9/11).

Sanders said he found Clinton’s remarks Saturday night “a little bit silly and a little bit absurd” during an interview with Katie Couric on Yahoo News Live.
