Trump has taken the position that he has full authority over the executive branch — including over funds appropriated by Congress.

Under the ballot measure, the elected executive would have the power to veto the board’s policies and would have full authority over department heads.

Moriarty later said in a statement that she would retain full authority over the case and pay the attorneys out of her existing budget.
