NC governors challenge new law shifting election control, citing constitutional concerns.
北卡罗来纳州州长罗伊·库珀(Roy Cooper)和当选州长Josh Stein(Josh Stein)提出诉讼, 质疑将州选举控制权从州长转移至州审计师的新法律, 认为这违反了州宪法。
North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper and Governor-elect Josh Stein have filed a lawsuit challenging a new law that shifts control of state elections from the governor to the state auditor, arguing it violates the state constitution.
这项法律经库珀否决后通过,还重组了国家公路巡逻队,削弱了新上任的民主官员的权力。
The law, passed after veto by Cooper, also restructures the State Highway Patrol, reducing powers of incoming Democratic officials.
诉讼主张这些变化破坏了三权分立,并代表了政府立法机构的党派行动。
The lawsuit claims the changes undermine the separation of powers and represent a partisan move by the GOP legislature.
