Boston, MA: Mayor Michelle Wu seeks to veto cuts to police and fire departments – NBC Boston

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu is expected to veto City Council budget cuts on Monday that would reduce funding for the city’s police and fire departments.

Last week, city councilors voted to cut Wu’s recommended spending for the two departments, but the Boston Herald reports that the mayor plans to restore full funding – a move that is not unusual.

Last year, Wu also vetoed municipal cuts to police and fire services.
