DiZoglio to sue MassPort over settlement details
Summary
Massachusetts State Auditor Diana DiZoglio announced her intention to sue the Massachusetts Port Authority (MassPort) over what she claims is a lack of transparency regarding settlement details. The dispute stems from a $1.37 million settlement reached in 2022, which DiZoglio’s audit revealed concealed allegations of gender- and disability-based discrimination, as well as unequal pay. DiZoglio argues that MassPort improperly used non-disclosure agreements to prevent her office from accessing information needed for a required audit. She believes the public has a right to know about these allegations and the terms of the settlement, and her lawsuit aims to compel MassPort to release the requested information.
