U.S. Senate Candidate Defends Tax Deduction Decision

Republican U.S. Senate candidate Gabriel Gomez is defending his decision to take a $281,000 historic tax deduction on his Cohasset home, even though local bylaws already prevented the changes to the home.

Gomez said he's done nothing wrong and earned everything he's accomplished.

He criticized his Democratic opponent Congressman Edward Markey for suggesting he'd done anything to break the rules. (Associated Press)
