Clinton rallies around gender appeal

Article here. Excerpt:

'In a state with a history of electing women to its highest offices, and on the 20th anniversary of her famous speech in Beijing, where as First Lady she declared “women’s rights are human rights and human rights are women’s rights,” Hillary Clinton defined the entire economic agenda of her 2016 campaign as a women's issue.
...
“Raising the minimum wage is a women’s issue,” she said. “Holding corporations accountable when they gouge us on drug prices, pollute our environment or exploit workers are women’s issues.”

Corporations profit-sharing with their employees, college affordability, and creating a pathway to citizenship for immigrants, she added, were all women’s issues, too.'
