Morelle Apologizes to LaMar

Congressman Joe Morelle has apologized to Monroe County Legislator Sabrina LaMar, saying he never tried to get her fired from her job at the Rochester Institute of Technology.

LaMar appeared on a Facebook Live program hosted by Morelle's Democratic primary opponent. LaMar says she was suspended for a short time after Morelle emailed her supervisor.
