"In addition to discussing women and family issues on Monday, Mrs. Clinton is expected to support Mr. Obama’s plans to extend overtime pay to workers and strengthen collective bargaining. She will also emphasize policies that would help the largely female members of the A.F.T., including pushing for paid family leave and affordable childcare, according to aides."

Thank you, Nancy!
