ARKANSAS : Mrs. Clinton to Miss Task Force Meeting
Hillary Rodham Clinton will not attend the first public meeting of the President’s health care task force in Washington today in order to remain at the bedside of her ailing father, aides said. Mrs. Clinton, who chairs the panel, missed two health care-related forums last week to be with her father, Hugh Rodham, 81. He is hospitalized in critical condition after suffering a stroke. President Clinton flew to Little Rock to join her. Vice President Al Gore is expected to fill in for Mrs. Clinton at today’s meeting.
