Massachusetts Democrats decide fate of lawmaker after abortion comments leave parents irate
Fox News
Massachusetts Democrat Michael Hugo, under fire for complaining about the cost of special education for disabled children who are not aborted, won't be removed from his position.
The vote came down 11 in favor, 16 against and one abstaining after more than an hour of discussion over Hugo’s remarks. Kassy Dillon is a reporter for Digital Originals. You can reach her at kassy.dillon@fox.com and follow her on Twitter at @kassydillon.
Earlier this month at a Framingham City Council meeting, Hugo said that misdiagnosis of defects in unborn babies may lead to more disabled children being born and becoming a financial strain on school systems. He apologized 10 days later in a statement following outrage from the local community.
