联邦法官以通货膨胀和独立性为由,对拒绝加薪28K美元提出诉讼。 Federal judges sue over denied $28K pay raise, citing inflation and independence concerns.

联邦法官已对美国政府提起诉讼,质疑美国政府拒绝增加28 000美元工资的决定。 Federal judges have filed a lawsuit against the U.S. government, challenging its decision to deny a proposed $28,000 pay raise. 法律行动是在2025年联邦预算进程之前采取的,认为冻结工资损害了司法独立性,未能跟上通货膨胀和生活费用。 The legal action comes ahead of the 2025 federal budget process and argues that the pay freeze undermines judicial independence and fails to keep pace with inflation and the cost of living. 该诉讼案辩称,法官的报酬应当反映他们的责任以及许多法院所在的主要大都市地区费用上涨的情况。 The suit contends that judges’ compensation should reflect their responsibilities and the rising expenses in major metropolitan areas where many courts are located.
