Senator Clinton worked with Senator Charles Schumer to secure $21.4 billion in funding to assist clean up and recovery, to provide health tracking for first responders and volunteers at Ground Zero, and to create grants for redevelopment. In 2005, Clinton issued two studies that examined the disbursement of federal homeland security funds to local communities and first responders.
As an advocate for her state, Senator Clinton led a bipartisan effort to bring broadband access to rural communities; co-sponsored the 21st Century Nanotechnology Research and Development Act; included language in the Energy Bill to provide tax exempt bonding authority for environmentally conscious construction projects; and introduced an amendment calling for funding of new job creation to repair, renovate and modernize public schools.
In May 2005, Senator Clinton joined forces with her former adversary, House Speaker Newt Gingrich, on a proposal for incremental universal health care.[47] In June, 2005, Senator Clinton united with Senator Bill Frist to push for the modernization of medical records, claiming that thousands of deaths caused by medical mistakes, such as misreading prescriptions, can be prevented by greater reliance on computer technology.
In July 2005 she co-introduced legislation to increase the size of the regular United States Army by 80,000 soldiers.
On November 29, 2005, Clinton, together with Joe Lieberman and Evan Bayh introduced the Family Entertainment Protection Act. The act is intended to protect children from inappropriate content found in video games.
BTW? Her main function is to work for the State of New York, not the national level. There weren't many Democrats who could get anything done in a Republican controlled Senate. Grab onto your seat after January and ask this question again in about a year.

Thank you for asking this question. The people who answered correctly have helped to educate those poor conservative republicans who weren't in the know about what all she has done. Education is a good thing!

Look at the congressional record. Every bill she has sponsored is there along with her voting record. There is also a great deal of information on her web page. I hate it when people copy and past large amounts of information into YA so I won't do that here. However the information is easy enough to find.
Her primary responsibility is not to the country but to the people of the state of New York.

As far as I have seen she is for anything that takes rights away from parents on how to raise their children. She wants the American people to continue to pay for schools that aren't doing their jobs. Why should I have to pay twice? Once for the public school and once for the private school of my choice.
Partial birth abortion is the murder of a viable baby. Newborns remember things from when they were in the womb, voices and sounds.

Better the country? Nothing comes to mind. She has, however, given me a constant pain in my gluteus maximus ever since I've heard of her. I can say for sure that if she decided to leave this country for good that would be a betterment to society.

That's not really a fair question. She a representative of the state of New York. A fair question would be: What has she done to better New York state.
