New York, July 12 (ANI): U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton apparently added another initiative to her portfolio during a question-answer session with staffers on Friday-finding hot showers for her employees at the State Department.

Apart from being asked about “biking and running to work”, she was asked by a young woman: “Whether you would support an initiative to get us access to showers.”

According to the New York Daily News, the crowd in the Dean Acheson auditorium at the State Department cracked up as the former First Lady replied: “I don’t know what portable showers look like. (But) we’ll look into it.”

It was Clinton’s first extended public appearance since she broke her elbow during a tumble last month.

After six months on the job, the former First Lady told her team: “We need to get in the habit of looking to the horizon and planning for how we want things to be.”

Deputy Secretary of State Jack Lew said: “We don’t think we’re doing everything as well as we should” and “there are areas of our program that we need to change.” (ANI)
