Another Dem Superstar To Join Team Clinton

Sen. Hillary Clinton's Senate re-election campaign has just signed up another heavy-hitter.

Two sources close to the campaign confirm that Judith Litchman, an advocate for women and family legislation in Washington for decades, will join the campaign as a senior adviser.

Ann Lewis, the campaign Comm. Dir., e-mailed allies today with the news. Lewis: "I am so pleased to be able to tell you that Judy Lichtman will be joining Friends of Hillary as a Senior Advisor. Judy will be lending her expertise on work-family issues, which are so important to New York families, and her experience in working for social change, to the campaign."

Litchman is currently a senior adviser at the National Partnership for Women and Families. During the Clinton administration, she was often called one of the most influential Washington lobbyists/lawyers. She had the ear of both Pres. and Hillary Clinton. Lewis, in her e-mail, calls Litchman "the architect of the Family and Medical Leave Act, which has been relied on by more than 50 million women and men since it was enacted in 1993."
