Michael Hugo, the chair of the Framingham Democratic Committee, argued in a city council meeting that crisis pregnancy centers are a danger to the community because their screening might not catch a birth defect, the result of which would be the live birth of an expensive-to-care-for disabled child.
Best to be sure to kill them before they have a budgetary impact.
Hugo is not just the chair of the Democrats in this one town in Massachusetts, but the director of policy and government affairs for the Massachusetts Association of Health Boards.
Nice to know. If you are planning on getting medical care in the state, be aware that the medical boards are lobbying the government to kill off the disabled.
There are calls for his resignation from disability groups, and if they succeed in getting him to leave his party position or even his job as a policy director, he can always move to Canada where killing off the unwanted and expensive is official government policy already.
A local Democrat official in Massachusetts is facing calls to step down after complaining about the cost of special education for children with disabilities who are not aborted.
Michael Hugo, the chair of the Framingham Democratic Committee, made the remarks during a city council meeting when discussing a proclamation about access to abortion and crisis pregnancy centers in the city. He said crisis pregnancy centers could misdiagnose a defect in a baby in the womb, leading to them being born and becoming a strain on a school budget. He issued a public apology after 10 days of backlash from members of his own party and parents of special needs children.
Misdiagnoses go both ways, of course. Planned Parenthood is so anxious to kill off babies that they have been known to recommend abortions for babies who turn out to be perfectly healthy. But killing babies is no big deal, so best to be sure.
Hugo has made the obligatory non-apology apology, ensuring the community that he meant no offense. He just wanted to be sure that everybody knew that letting babies live could be expensive, and the ROI might be negative.
Good to know.
In his public apology letter, Hugo called his comments “offensive and hurtful.”
“I am writing to offer my most sincere and humble apology to members of the Framingham Democratic Committee, but more especially my fellow members of Framingham’s disability family community, for comments that I made at the last City Council meeting which were offensive and hurtful,” he wrote.
He said members of the committee did not “see or review” his remarks despite being sent out the night before the meeting.
“Our fear is that if an unqualified sonographer misdiagnoses a heart defect, an organ defect, spina bifida or an encephalopathic defect that becomes a very local issue because our school budget will have to absorb the cost of a child in special education, supplying lots and lots of special services to children, who were born with the defect,” Hugo said at the Feb. 7 meeting.
Laura Green, a disability advocate in Framingham told Fox News that she does not accept his apology.
“I feel that it was generic and lackluster. I feel like after a statement like that is made, you can’t just pretend that it didn’t happen or take it back because it’s damaging to a community of people,” she said. “The disability community is the only minority group that you can become a part of at any time.”
Notice that the entire Democrat committee had been sent his remarks before he made them? He claims that nobody actually read them, and that is plausible as Democrats are like that. They probably just skimmed them to ensure he was all for killing kids. Who cares which ones, as long as enough die?
This is what happens once you abandon the belief that all human beings are made in the image of God and are uniquely valuable. The murder of the innocent is a natural consequence of the belief that one’s value as a human being is dependent upon being “wanted.”
Once you accept that human beings have no soul and no inherent value it is difficult to see how you don’t arrive at Hugo’s conclusion.
It would be comforting if Hugo were uniquely evil, but sadly he is not. He is probably just a normal, rational guy who believes that babies have to justify their existence by providing a good ROI. It’s the ideology that leads to this evil conclusion, not some defect in the soul.
At least I think that is the case.
Could be Vermont or Maine, too. Vermont might be liberal, yet they do have a LIBERTARIAN streak, too. Public nudity (not sex) is fine...Brattleboro, decided to ban it after teens decided to moon The Vermonter.🤓
Do these people ever realize that THEY are responsible for making everyone a dependent of the state, & they should’ve foreseen that at some point the costs would be untenable? If they’d never implemented all of their welfare schemes, people would’ve relied on charity for assistance, & maybe some of our billionaires would be truly charitable in helping them instead of using all of their money for political ends.
I bet Mr Hugo never gave one cent to Shriners or St Jude's!!
The wicked will fall into the trap which they have set for the just.
Truth! 85% of Americans took the vax. That is holocaust level obedience without question.
Every vital industry has been stripped of the 15 percent.
They did this, with a Republican prez… so that’s pretty darn skillful.
Now they are cutting breasts and cheically castrating teens…b the same teens they say can’t smoke or drink alcohol can go on massive hormones and they openly dare us to stop them.
We won’t.
The power of mail in ballots and other covidian fraud was just an Overton window.
They are just getting warmed up.
It is the same analog as putting a frog in a cold pan of water and slowly boiling it. Liberalism’s patron saint is incrementalism.
Stephen Hawking.
Socialist medical care. It’s a simple trap. Everybody pays for anybody.
Then comes the trigger. Nobody has any rights to commit “budgetary impact.” Anybody who costs too much has committed a budgetary impact and is eligible to be abandoned, starved, neglected, cast adrift on an ice floe, processed or parted out as an organ donor.
You must be healthy (a productive taxpayer) to play.
It’s basically a sleek, modern version of Only The Strong Survive. Law of the jungle, “new!” (packaging).
Politicians are the only race that impoverish taxpayers. Hang them all.
Wouldn’t it be more cost effective for the taxpayers if mike and his ilk were to practice retroactive abortions and kill themselves?
I DARE him to stand up in front of the Board of Shriner’s Hospitals & make that statement.
Abel-ist wants to raise Cain again.

Note what it doesn’t say, the honoring of life.

will remote view the in utero contents to predict
exactly which children must die in utero."

I was astonished to see the number of “immigrants” there 25 years ago.
Gee!
I’m a minority now.
He was fine when he was born.
You should see what the transplants are trying to do to us now that they’ve discovered more than half the State’s population has forgotten (or never learned) our history.
