Boston lawmakers are considering cutting $18 million from law enforcement in their budget amendments, drawing outrage from the head of a Boston police union.

Boston lawmakers, who are considering slashing millions from the police department budget for the third year in a row, have come under fire from the head of the city's largest police union, according to a new report.

Council Vice President Brian Worrell emphasized that budget cuts were not final, and the budget was 'a work in progress,' in comments to The Herald. 'In this process, we are not looking to impact any city services or the quality of life that our city services provide to our constituents in any way,' he continued. 'That is completely not our goal. We’re looking to increase the investments and services that our city provides to our residents.
