NEVER TOLERATE TYRANNY!....Conservative voices from the GRASSROOTS.
Cheryl D. Mills (born 1965[1][2]) is an American lawyer, administrator, and corporate executive. She is most known for being deputy White House Counsel for President Bill Clinton, whom she defended during his 1999 impeachment trial. She worked for New York University as Senior Vice President.[3] She served as Senior Adviser and Counsel for Hillary Rodham Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign[4] and is considered a member of "Hillaryland".[4] She currently serves as Counselor and Chief of Staff to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.[5]
She served as Deputy General Counsel of the Clinton/Gore Transition Planning Foundation after Clinton's 1992 election, and then Associate Counsel to the President in the White House[3] from 1993 on.[8] Until impeachment, she was little known to the public.[9]
During the impeachment trial, the BBC reported that she was "widely regarded as the shining star of the defense team, and gave an effective presentation on President Clinton's behalf on the second day of defense arguments."[1] Other media outlets also viewed her work quite favorably.[10] Her presentation to the Senate focused on refuting the obstruction of justice charge and the House managers' claim that failure to convict the President would damage the rule of law.[1] Her summation became known for its endorsement of Clinton's record with respect towards women and minorities;[2] she said, "I stand here before you today because President Bill Clinton believed I could stand here for him ... I'm not worried about civil rights, because this President's record on civil rights, on women's rights, on all of our rights is unimpeachable."[2][6]
After Clinton was acquitted, Mills was offered the White House Counsel position when Charles Ruff stepped down, but she declined.[2]
Mills has served as the Counselor and Chief of Staff to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton since January 2009. In her capacity as Counselor, she is a principal officer who serves the Secretary as a special advisor on major foreign policy challenges.[5] As Chief of Staff, Mills manages the Department's staff, providing support to the Secretary in administering operations of the Department. As former White House Press Secretary Joe Lockhart said, “I think Secretary Clinton wants to know you’re a team player, but she wants to hear it straight and she gets exactly that from Cheryl.”[14]
Mills currently is leading the Department’s interagency global hunger and food security initiative (Feed the Future) and diplomacy and development efforts in Haiti working closely with USAID and others across the government.[15] She serves as the United States' representative on the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission (IHRC). In January 2011, Mills joined Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive, the Inter-American Development Bank, Sae-A and the IHRC to announce the construction of an industrial park in Northern Haiti. Its first tenant will create 20,000 jobs alone.[16] Mills has said, "I feel a special connection to Haiti and the Haitian people. The power of Haitian heritage and the strength of the Haitian people is tremendous. And, Haiti holds a unique and rich role in the history of African Americans."[17] Shortly after taking office Secretary Clinton asked Mills to lead an interagency consultation of current agriculture and food security efforts. The subsequent strategy became (Feed the Future). The Obama administration pledged $3.5 billion over three years to boost agricultural productivity. Describing the importance of food security Mills said, "We are always worried whenever people cant feed themselves. And particularly worried when that actually might translate to destabilization of a country. It is one of the reasons why this program is such an important one."[18]ul
