Washington, DC - Senator Clinton met today with leaders from the Gold Star Mothers of America, an organization of mothers who have lost a son or daughter in the service of our country.

During the meeting, she reiterated her intent to reintroduce the Gold Star Parent Annuity Act which would provide an annuity of $125 a month for Gold Star Parents.

Senator Clinton is also an original co-sponsor of a Senate resolution introduced by Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK) supporting the goals and ideals of Gold Star Mothers Day. Gold Star Mothers Day takes place each year on September 25. The resolution is expected to be passed tonight by the US Senate.

"I was honored to once again meet with the leadership of the Gold Star Mothers. Over the past several years, I have developed a close relationship with these mothers who have lost a child in service to our nation. I will continue to support their efforts in my work as a U.S. Senator."
