马萨诸塞州审计师起诉立法领导人,强制实施选民批准的对立法者财务的审计权力。 Massachusetts auditor sues legislative leaders to enforce voter-approved audit power over lawmakers' finances.

马萨诸塞州审计官戴安娜·迪佐格利奥起诉众议院议长罗恩·马里亚诺和参议院议长卡伦·斯皮尔卡,要求法院执行2024年选民批准的授予她对立法机构的审计权力的法律。 Massachusetts State Auditor Diana DiZoglio has sued House Speaker Ron Mariano and Senate President Karen Spilka, seeking court enforcement of a 2024 voter-approved law granting her audit authority over the Legislature. 尽管72%的公共支持,但立法领导人以三权分立为由,拒绝提供财务记录,包括预算和解决协议。 Despite 72% public support, legislative leaders have refused to provide financial records, including budgets and settlement agreements, citing separation of powers. DiZoglio声称,检察总长办公室阻挠她的努力,因为她拒绝协助而没有更详细的细节,促使她提起诉讼,强迫她制作文件,并任命一名特别检察官。 DiZoglio alleges the Attorney General’s Office obstructed her efforts by declining to assist without more detail, prompting the lawsuit to compel document production and appoint a special prosecutor. 该案可能为国家透明度和审计员独立性树立先例。 The case could set a precedent on state transparency and auditor independence.
