100. Sure:

As mentioned above, there were no laws made.

These passed the Senate:

S.Res.52 - A resolution honoring Shirley Chisholm for her service to the Nation and expressing condolences to her family, friends, and supporters on her death.
https://www.congress.gov/bill/109th-congress/senate-resolution/52?q=%7B"search"%3A%5B"Hillary+Clinton"%5D%7D

S.Res.490 - A resolution recognizing the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater for 50 years of service to the performing arts.
https://www.congress.gov/bill/110th-congress/senate-resolution/490?q=%7B"search"%3A%5B"Hillary+Clinton"%5D%7D

S.Res.334 - A resolution recognizing the Ellis Island Medal of Honor.
https://www.congress.gov/bill/107th-congress/senate-resolution/334?q=%7B"search"%3A%5B"Hillary+Clinton"%5D%7D

There are a LOT of other proposals from the Civil Rights History Project Act of 2008, to a wide variety of health and education related submissions, but I didn't include them because they did come to a floor vote.

Can I have a list of Hillary's Pro POC legislation? [View all]	JonLeibowitz	Feb 2016	OP
You won't find any. She only passed 3 bills in her Senate career. And they all named things.	w4rma	Feb 2016	#1
That is alright. Proposed legislation will do as well.	JonLeibowitz	Feb 2016	#2
Not true. But remember, Clinton wasn't in Congress for 25 years.	George II	Feb 2016	#51
8 years in the senate is a long time to have no legislation proposed...	Bubzer	Feb 2016	#66
True, but she did propose legislation in that time. Sorry to disappoint.	George II	Feb 2016	#84
Which post office are you referring to? n/t	JonLeibowitz	Feb 2016	#86
Your OP was about Hillary, not Bernie.	George II	Feb 2016	#92
Not dispointed. I believe in credit where it's due. Does she have anything outside of gun control?	Bubzer	Feb 2016	#96
I believe the discussion was about:	George II	Feb 2016	#183
Right. My question hasn't deviated from that topic. Does she have anything outside of gun control?	Bubzer	Feb 2016	#185
Wow. That is beyond pathetic for a former first lady, an 8 year Senator and the most famous woman	JimDandy	Feb 2016	#83
--- but she did write a good book. I think the title is "Village of the Damned."	Hoppy	Feb 2016	#118

I appreciate your post, since I asked her this and she wouldn't answer except to tell me to	JudyM	Feb 2016	#28
You are very welcome. As expected, however, this OP is content-free. n/t	JonLeibowitz	Feb 2016	#33

You mean she hasn't criticized Obama recently. Recently is the important word there. nt	Live and Learn	Feb 2016	#17
Point well taken. She was vicious in 2008.	morningfog	Feb 2016	#19
In 2008, it was low down. She has criticized him often since then,	merrily	Feb 2016	#53
Heck, she was viscious in 2014.	Fawke Em	Feb 2016	#186
bravenak invited the creation of this OP	tk2kewl	Feb 2016	#36
her? Oh yeah. Have had her on ignore for a long time now.	liberal_at_heart	Feb 2016	#151
i'm getting used to her	tk2kewl	Feb 2016	#157
Except she has criticized Obama. Especially on foreign policy.	jeff47	Feb 2016	#187
Yo!	bravenak	Feb 2016	#8
Yo!	JonLeibowitz	Feb 2016	#10
Oh guaranteed there's no response. The OP was flamebait anyway	Arazi	Feb 2016	#14
That would be amazing!	JonLeibowitz	Feb 2016	#15
How?	Quayblue	Feb 2016	#88
I was being sincere	Quayblue	Feb 2016	#112
Are you talking about here or on another op?	bravenak	Feb 2016	#116
here	Quayblue	Feb 2016	#132
I'm sure this op is not quite serious	bravenak	Feb 2016	#136
You are quite correct. But this thread was almost begging to be made. n/t	JonLeibowitz	Feb 2016	#138
I understand perfectly.nt	bravenak	Feb 2016	#142
But can you answer the question? If not I assume she must have done NOTHING /nt	Dragonfli	Feb 2016	#162
I'm not being told how she is the best for blacks day after day	bravenak	Feb 2016	#164
I am being told that day after day and and left wondering why. Those are good pieces of legislation	Dragonfli	Feb 2016	#166
You have it wrong	bravenak	Feb 2016	#171
Then you should hold Hillary to the same standard	Dragonfli	Feb 2016	#178
next time	Quayblue	Feb 2016	#148
:-) And don't get me wrong...I was completely open to hearing about any such legislation	JonLeibowitz	Feb 2016	#150
ha!	Quayblue	Feb 2016	#155
oh	Quayblue	Feb 2016	#139
But did she end racism?	leftupnorth	Feb 2016	#9
NOT GOOD ENOUGH HILLARY	2pooped2pop	Feb 2016	#13
No, but she's formed "relationships" and "friendships," see?	SMC22307	Feb 2016	#108
She will continue expansion of the private prison system and War On Drugs	gyroscope	Feb 2016	#16
I heard a Republican congressman promoting prison call center jobs as a way to keep jobs in the USA	virtualobserver	Feb 2016	#63
Didn't you know it's okay to have your vote taken for granted by Hillary, if you're her firewall	JimDandy	Feb 2016	#97
Kickin'. No answers yet.	JonLeibowitz	Feb 2016	#18
She voted against the Bush Tax cuts in 2001 and voted to repeal them in 2007	brooklynite	Feb 2016	#21
not specifically for POC eom	noiretextatique	Feb 2016	#25
Thank you, but as already observed, this does not apply.	JonLeibowitz	Feb 2016	#29
Votes don't count according to Bravenak's rules. It has to be legislation she proposed that passed.	Live and Learn	Feb 2016	#31
I understand from Hillary supporters...	MellowDem	Feb 2016	#69
The defining issue is gun violence. Hillary's record is good, Bernie's is bad.	ucrdem	Feb 2016	#22
Nope, not good enough! Unless it's specificly for POC, it doesn't count	Arazi	Feb 2016	#24
Yep. Gun violence applies to ALL people. This is about PoC.	JonLeibowitz	Feb 2016	#26
defining issues for who?	noiretextatique	Feb 2016	#30
For voters. It defines the candidates' position vis-a-vis POC communities.	ucrdem	Feb 2016	#34
Excuse me, this OP is about Hillary, not Bernie. Please try to stay on topic. n/t	JonLeibowitz	Feb 2016	#40
The Gun Control Movement has it's origin in racism.	Odin2005	Feb 2016	#52
Wrong on all counts. It's not the defnining issue and the NRA rates Bernie D- to F.	merrily	Feb 2016	#57
In this context, it is. And this is where the battle will be fought and won. nt	ucrdem	Feb 2016	#73
Hillary would like it to be the defining issue, but it is not. Sorry!	merrily	Feb 2016	#131
Co-sponsored legislation doesn't count. You can sign on to legislation at the last second.	JimDandy	Feb 2016	#106
Well, that IWR vote created a lot of jobs, albeit dead end ones.	Live and Learn	Feb 2016	#23
