LOS ANGELES (AP) — On the day of the first Republican presidential debate, Hillary Rodham Clinton said Thursday she’s often left in a “state of disbelief” from what she hears from some of her 2016 rivals.
Speaking in Los Angeles, where she met with home-care aides who often struggle with lower wages and difficult working conditions, Clinton expressed dismay with those who would oppose improvements for those workers, including better training and bigger paychecks.
“When people in the political world … oppose these programs, I would like them to just walk in your shoes for a week,” she told a group of workers seated around her, who provide in-home care for the elderly, sick and disabled.
