Meeting never took place

The liberal Center for American Progress (CAP) this year promised corporate donors a chance to meet Hillary Rodham Clinton in return for a $250,000 donation, documents obtained by The Hill show.

The meeting never happened, though Clinton spoke at the anniversary gala at the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium that was cited on the solicitation.

"None of the patrons were able to meet with Secretary Clinton but our board and trustees did meet with her at the event," said Andrea Purse, a CAP spokeswoman.
