Her efforts to conduct the audit come after Massachusetts voters made it clear theyapprovedthe auditor examining the legislature’s finances, according to WWLP.
DiZoglio is pressing officials for answers, telling Fox, “What are they hiding? If there’s nothing to hide, open up the doors, let the sun shine in. Let’s do this audit.”
DiZoglio also said sheinformedthe legislature about a performance audit, but they refused to hand over the documents needed and she also claimed the attorney general would not take action.
“This is about transparency and accountability. This is not about whether you support the right or the left. This is about coming together and getting access to documents that should be a matter of public record,” she said, adding, “Here in Massachusetts we are only state in the nation that unfortunately has a legislature, governor’s office, and court system that exempt themselves from the state’s public records law.”
