“Sen. Rand Paul, who's long been a fierce critic of Hillary Clinton, will call on the former secretary of state to return contributions made from Saudi Arabia to her family's foundation. In a Friday night speech in New Hampshire, the Kentucky Republican will say there's been a ‘war on women...in Saudi Arabia’ and will urge Clinton to denounce contributions from the country to the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation. ‘There has been much talk of a war on women. There is indeed a war on women . . . in Saudi Arabia,’ he will say, according to an excerpt of his prepared remarks. ‘When Hillary Clinton claims she will support women's rights, ask her why she accepted millions of dollars from (Saudi Arabia).’” [CNN, 3/20/15] Rand Paul On Hillary Clinton: “How Could We Possibly Consider For The Presidency A Woman Who's Going To Take Money From Stone Age Countries, Then Act As If She Can Somehow Be Objective, Or Be A Champion For Women's Rights?” “In North Conway, he recounted for more than 100 Republican donors and activists the stories of women who had been accused of adultery, then killed, after trials in sexist judicial system. ‘How could we possibly consider for the presidency a woman who's going to take money from Stone Age countries, then act as if she can somehow be objective, or be a champion for women's rights?’ asked Paul.” [Bloomberg, 3/21/15] Rand Paul Said There Was A “Grand Hypocrisy” For The Clintons Because They Liked To Talk About The War On Women And Yet They Were Accepting Money From Countries Like Saudi Arabia Where Rape Victims Were Lashed. RAND PAUL: “I think the thing is about the Clintons is that there is a certain sense that they think they're above the law. And I think there's also this grand hypocrisy for the Clintons in the sense that we have this whole thing, this war on women thing, that they like to talk about and yet Hillary Clinton has taken money from countries that rape victims are publicly lashed. In Saudi Arabia a woman was gang raped by seven men. She was publicly lashed 90 times and then she was convicted of being in the car with an unmarried man. We should be boycotting, voluntarily boycotting a country, not buying stuff from a country that does that to women.” [Meet the Press, NBC, 4/12/15] FIORINA ATTACKED CLINTON FOR PUSHING EQUAL PAY LAWS DESPITE AN APPARENTLY POOR RECORD ON EQUAL PAY IN CLINTON’S SENATE OFFICE Carly Fiorina On Secretary Clinton: “She Tweets About Equal Pay For Women But Won’t Answer Basic Questions About Her Own Offices’ Pay Standards.” [Politico, 2/26/15] CLINTON DEFENSE THEN-FIRST LADY CLINTON ADVOCATED FOR WOMEN ON THE INTERNATIONAL STAGE New York Times: In A 1995 Speech To The Fourth World Conference On Women In Beijing, Hillary Clinton “Gave A Devastating Litany Of Abuse Afflicting Women Around The World And Declared: ‘Human Rights Are Women’s Rights, And Women’s Rights Are Human Rights.’” “Both events explicitly invoke Mrs. Clinton’s forceful speech in Beijing as first lady in 1995, at the Fourth World Conference on Women, when she gave a devastating litany of abuse afflicting women around the world and declared: ‘Human rights are women’s rights, and women’s rights are human rights.’ The Beijing speech has been a touchstone for Mrs. Clinton since she stepped down as secretary of state in early 2013.” [New York Times, 3/8/15] SECRETARY CLINTON CHAMPIONED WOMEN’S RIGHTS DURING HER TENURE AT THE STATE DEPARTMENT BY ELEVATING THE ROLE OF WOMEN’S ISSUES IN DIPLOMACY AND OVERSEEING PROGRAMS THAT DIRECTLY ASSISTED WOMEN ACROSS THE WORLD New York Times: Secretary Clinton “Appointed A Close Aide, Melanne Verveer, As The First United States Ambassador At Large For Global Women’s Issues.” “At the State Department, Mrs. Clinton emphasized how empowering women and girls could also enhance economies, national security
