Disabled children are allowed to attend public schools, thanks to Hillary. You seem to be ignorant of her accomplishments.

Hillary Clinton graduated from Wellesley with honors, then served on the editorial board of the Yale Review of Law and Social Action. She worked at the Yale Child Study Center, studying early childhood brain development and working as a research assistant on the seminal work, Beyond the Best Interests of the Child (1973). She also took on cases of child abuse at Yale-New Haven Hospital and volunteered at New Haven Legal Services to provide free legal advice for the poor. In the summer of 1970 she was awarded a grant to work at Marian Wright Edelman's Washington Research Project, where she researched migrant workers' problems in housing, sanitation, health and education.

She received a Juris Doctor degree from Yale in 1973.

Her first scholarly article, "Children Under the Law", was published in the Harvard Educational Review in late 1973. Discussing the new children's rights movement, it stated that "child citizens" were "powerless individuals" and argued that children should not be considered equally incompetent from birth to attaining legal age, but that instead courts should presume competence except when there is evidence otherwise, on a case-by-case basis. The article became frequently cited in the field. An American Bar Association chair later said, "Her articles were important, not because they were radically new but because they helped formulate something that had been inchoate. Historian Garry Wills would later describe her as "one of the more important scholar-activists of the last two decades".

In August 1974, Rodham moved to Fayetteville, Arkansas, and became one of only two female faculty members in the School of Law at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville. She gave classes in criminal law, where she was considered a rigorous teacher and tough grader, and was the first director of the school's legal aid clinic.

Hillary Clinton co-founded Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families in 1977, became the first female chair of the Legal Services Corporation in 1978, and was named the first female partner at Rose Law Firm in 1979. She specialized in patent infringement and intellectual property law, while also working pro bono in child advocacy. The National Law Journal twice listed her as one of the hundred most influential lawyers in America. While First Lady of Arkansas from 1979 to 1981 and 1983 to 1992, she led a task force that reformed Arkansas' education system.

As First Lady, Hillary Rodham Clinton chaired the National Commission on Health Care Reform and helped craft legislation for universal healthcare. She led the fight to pass the Children's Health Insurance Program; worked to increase funding for cancer research and treatment, osteoporosis and juvenile diabetes; and supported the Brady Bill and the assault weapons ban. Hillary announced a task force to address employment opportunities for disabled people, proposed programs to expand on the ADA and increase the number of disabled federal employees, to get rid of disability-based discrimination, established the DOL’s Office of Disability Policy, and worked with Congress to provide greater healthcare options and employment for the disabled.

As a U.S. senator, she took a leading role in investigating the health issues that 9/11 first responders were facing. She worked to retain and increase benefits for veterans. She also introduced the Family Entertainment Protection Act, which provided for content ratings of video games to help parents protect their children from adult content.

As Secretary of State, Clinton unveiled the Global Hunger and Food Security program, saved the signing of a Turkish-Armenian accord, kept American boots off the ground during the Arab Spring uprising, and helped to broker the current Iran peace deal.

Aside from her political activities, Hillary Clinton has helped over 400 million people worldwide with her charity organization. The Clinton Foundation has the highest transparency rating of all charities, and has been one of the pioneers in clean energy, helping impoverished nations implement solar and wind solutions. The foundation has also addressed income inequality by helping communities create their own industries that allow families to become business owners.

(Meanwhile, Bernie Sanders was dodging child support, stealing electricity from his landlord, and self-publishing his creepy rape fantasies, while pushing for children to be allowed to run around naked and touch each other's genitals.)

Hillary Clinton is one of the most admired women in history due to her integrity and commitment to public service. Frankly, I don't trust women who bought into the GOP/Berniebots' anti-Hillary narrative. It's an anti-woman narrative, and you should have seen right through it.
