At an earlier Framingham City Council meeting, Hugo <a href="https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnypost.com%2F2023%2F02%2F24%2Fmassachusettes-dem-michael-hugo-denounced-for-abortion-comments%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7Ckhamrick%40studentsforlife.org%7C9a84c1e688bf47ce23e608db1b51a36f%7Cb3f92ab929b141449c57d11e0e7a368a%7C0%7C0%7C638133809724856794%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=1cUR4MdDKN8iuz8CarAWRwVBVabzFUGZ%2FUFBfS1dkHI%3D&amp;reserved=0">voiced complaints</a> about the cost burden of special education for children with disabilities who were not aborted. His comments were met with backlash from both sides of the political aisle and families with special needs children. Hugo issued a <a href="https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.metrowestdailynews.com%2Fstory%2Fnews%2Flocal%2F2023%2F02%2F20%2Fframingham-ma-hugo-apologizes-special-ed-cost-comments%2F69916662007%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7Ckhamrick%40studentsforlife.org%7C9a84c1e688bf47ce23e608db1b51a36f%7Cb3f92ab929b141449c57d11e0e7a368a%7C0%7C0%7C638133809724856794%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=YGrH%2FWEJhHwfkTkMiolgdffPLbSMnhiXy7959wbKMK4%3D&amp;reserved=0">public apology</a> 10 days after the event, attempting to backpedal his ableist stance by apologizing and calling his comments “offensive and hurtful.”
