Ukuqonda amalungelo akho ngaphansi kwegatsha eliphethe kubalulekile ekuxhumaneni nohulumeni kahulumeni. Igatsha eliphethe (*) elihlanganisa uMongameli, izinhlangano zikahulumeni, kanye neminyango ("inamandla amakhulu) ekuphileni kwansuku zonke, kusukela ekukhipheni imishini ye-Social Security ukuze kuqinisekiswe imithetho yendawo ezungezile. Nokho abantu abaningi abaqiniseki ukuthi yiziphi isivikelo abanaso lapho besebenzelana naleligatsha. Lesiqondiso solimi olulula siphula amalungelo ayinhloko onawo ngaphansi kwe-U.S. Constituration nomthetho kahulumeni, kuchaza indlela igatsha eliphethe elisebenza ngayo, futhi kunikeza izinyathelo ezisebenzayo zokuqinisekisa lawomalungelo uma kudingeka.

Liyini Igatsha Eliphethe?

Igatsha eliphethe lingelinye lamagatsha amathathu alinganayo kahulumeni kahulumeni wase-U.S., eduze kwamagatsha omthetho (ikhomu) nokwahlulela. Umsebenzi wawo oyinhloko womthetho-sisekelo “ukunakekela ukuba iMithetho iqedwe ngokwethembeka” (iSiqendu II, Ingxenye 3). UMongameli usebenza njengenhloko yaleligatsha, kodwa umsebenzi wosuku lonke wokumisa imithetho kanye nezinhlelo zikahulumeni ufezwa yinhlangano enkulu yezinhlangano, izinhlangano, izimemezelo, izinhlangano, nezinhlangano zikahulumeni.

Ingxenye enkulu yegatsha eliphethe ihlanganisa:

  • Ihhovisi eliphetheyo likaMongameli (EOP):[[FLT] Izisebenzi zendlu ezimhlophe, iHhovisi lokuHlaziya noHlanziso, iNational Security Council, kanye namanye amaqembu asekela uMongameli ngokuqondile.
  • Iminyango yeKhabhinethi engu-15: EnjengoMnyango Wezwe, uMnyango Wokuvikela, uMnyango Wobulungisa, uMnyango Wezempilo Nezinkonzo Zobuntu, noMnyango Wezokuphepha Kwe Homeland. Ngamunye uholwa unobhala omiswe nguMongameli futhi aqinisekiswe yiSigele.
  • Izimo ezizimele: Njengendawo ezungezile yokuvikela (EPA), i-Federal Communications Commission (FCC), ne-Social Security Administration (SSA). Lezi zisebenza ngokuzimela okuthile ekulawuleni umongameli ngokuqondile, nakuba ziseyingxenye yegatsha eliphethe.
  • [ Izinhlangano zombuso: Njengenkonzo yeposi ne-Amtrak yase-U.S., enikeza izinkonzo zomphakathi.

Ngoba igatsha eliphethe lithinta cishe zonke izici zokuphila kwaseMelika — ukuthutha, izintela, izinzuzo, ukuphepha emsebenzini, ukuvikeleka kwabathengi, kanye nokunye — kubalulekile ukwazi amalungelo angokomthetho onawo lapho usebenzelana nalezi zinhlangano.

Amalungelo Akho Omthetho - sisekelo Amelene Nesenzo Sokuphatha

UMthetho-sisekelo wase-U.S. ubeka imingcele kulokho igatsha eliphethe elingakwenza kuwe. Lezisivikelo ziyasebenza kungakhathaliseki ukuthi uyisakhamuzi esisemthethweni sase-U.S., isakhamuzi esingokomthetho, noma (ezimweni eziningi) umuntu ongasitholi ngokomzimba ongekho eUnited States. Izivikelo zomthetho-sisekelo ezibaluleke kakhulu zitholakala kuyiBill of Rights neSiphendulo se - 14th.

Inqubo Yomthetho Efanele

ISichibiyelo sesihlanu sithi akekho umuntu ozothola “ukuphila, inkululeko, noma impahla, ngaphandle kwenqubo efanelekile yomthetho.” Lokhu kusho ukuthi ngaphambi kokuba uhulumeni athathe okuthile okunelungelo lakho lokukwenza − njengenkululeko yakho, ikhaya lakho, imvume yakho, noma izinzuzo zikahulumeni wakho kumelwe kulandele izinqubo ezilungile. Inqubo “efanele" ixhomeke esimweni, kodwa ngokuvamile ihlanganisa:

  • Notice: Kumelwe utshelwe kusengaphambili ukuthi isiphi isenzo uhulumeni afuna ukusithatha nokuthi kungani.
  • [[UMTL:0] Ithuba lokuzwakala: Unelungelo lokuveza uhlangothi lwakho, ngokuvamile lapho uzwa noma ngokuzithoba okubhaliwe.
  • Umenzi wesinqumo ongakhethi: Isikhulu esinquma icala lakho akumelwe sibe nobandlululo noma isithakazelo semali.
  • Accessing : Ungabona futhi usabelele ebubufakazi uhulumeni akusebenzisayo ngokumelene nawe.

Ngokwesibonelo, uma i-Social Security Administration inquma ukunqanda izinzuzo zakho zokukhubazeka, kumelwe uthole isaziso esibhaliwe futhi unikezwe ithuba lokudlulisa izicelo. Uma uMnyango Wezokuphepha Zase Homeland ufuna ukukuxosha, unelungelo lokuvela phambi komahluleli othuthela kwamanye amazwe, ubufakazi obukhona manje, futhi ube nommeli (kungakhathaliseki ukuthi uhulumeni ukhokhe imali emalini ezimweni eziningi).

Ukuvikelwa Okulinganayo Kwemithetho

ISichibiyelo seshumi nane seSiphendulo Esihlangene no-Exchange Claus senqabela igatsha eliphethe ukuba lingakubeki ubandlululo olusekelwe ohlwini lohlanga, ubulili, inkolo, imvelaphi yobuzwe, noma ezinye izigaba ezisolekayo ngaphandle kokukuthethelela okuqinile. Lokhu kusho ukuthi inhlangano kahulumeni ayinakukuphika inzuzo, ibeke isijeziso, noma ikuphathe ngokwehlukile ngenxa nje yokuthi ungubani. Uma ukholelwa inkambiso noma isenzo senhlangano ethile ikuhlasela ngenxa yobulungu bakho beqembu elivikelwe, ungase ube nesibopho esingokomthetho.

Isivikelo Ekucwaningeni Nokukhohlisa Okungenangqondo

ISichibiyelo sesine sikuvikela ekuphenyeni okungacabangeli nasekuqulekeni okubangelwa amanxusa kahulumeni. Lokhu kusebenza kubaphathi bamagatsha abaphethe njenge-FBI, imishini yokuhlola i-TSA, nezikhulu zokugunyaza ukufuduka. Ngokuvamile, badinga imvume kujaji noma isizathu esingaba sikhona sokuphenya ikhaya lakho, imoto, noma imiphumela yomuntu siqu. Kukhona okuhlukile (isigamu, ukuphenya komngcele, izimo ezibonisa ukuthi i-FBI, i-TSA screens, nomthetho ongakho kungukuthi ukugxambukela kukahulumeni kumelwe kube okunengqondo. Uma amalungelo akho ephulwa, ubufakazi obutholakala ngokungemthetho bungavunyelwe ukuba bungadingenwa enkantolo, futhi ungase ukwazi ukukhokhiswa impono.

Inkululeko Yokukhuluma Nesicelo

ISichibiyelo Sokuqala sivikela ilungelo lakho lokugxeka uhulumeni, ukusekela izinguquko zesimiso, nokunxusa kwegatsha eliphethe ukuze kulungiswe izikhalo. Ungabhalela uMongameli izincwadi, ufakazele ekuqulweni kwezindaba zomphakathi, ubhikishele ngaphandle kwezakhiwo zikahulumeni (ngesikhathi esifanelekile, indawo, nezindlela zokuvimbela), futhi uhlele nabanye. Igatsha eliphethe alinakukuphindiselela ngawe [1] Ngokukulahla ilayisensi noma ngokukuhlola ngenxa yokuveza umbono wakho.

Amalungelo Okubeka Imithetho Ayinhloko: Imithetho Ekuvikelayo

Ngaphandle koMthetho - sisekelo, iSishaya - mthetho siye sabeka imithetho ekunika amalungelo akhethekile lapho usebenzelana negatsha eliphethe.

Inkululeko Yokwaziswa Ithatha Isinyathelo (FOIA)

FIIA ukunikeza ilungelo lokucela amarekhodi avela kunoma iyiphi inhlangano yegatsha ephetheyo. Akudingeki uchaze ukuthi kungani ufuna ukwaziswa; uyabuza. Imishini kumelwe iphendule phakathi nezinsuku zebhizinisi ezingu-20 (nakuba ukulibala kuvamile). Ingagodlela ukwaziswa ngaphansi kwezincwadi zobuqotho eziyisishiyagalolunye kwezingu-9, njengokuhlelwa ngokwezingcabo zesizwe, izimfihlo zezohwebo, noma imfihlo yomuntu siqu. Uma inkampani igodlela amarekhodi, ungakhokha enkantolo yombuso. UFOIA ungenye yamathuluzi anamandla kakhulu okuveza ukukhanya, ukuvumela intatheli, abacwaningi, nezakhamuzi ezivamile ukuba ziveze lokho okwenziwa uhulumeni.

Indlela yokusebenzisa iFOIA: Yazi i-athom okungenzeka inemibhalo, faka isicelo esibhaliwe (izinhlangano eziningi zamukela ukuzithoba kuyi-intanethi), zichaze amarekhodi ngokukhethekile ngangokunokwenzeka, futhi zikulungele ukukhokha izindleko ezilinganiselwe zokubhala (intela ngokuvamile ziyayekelela izicelo zomphakathi). Ungafunda okuningi FOIA.[FLT]

Umthetho Ka - 1974 Owethula

I - Aspen Act ilawula indlela izinhlangano zamagatsha eziphethe eziqoqa ngayo, ezizisebenzisayo, futhi ezixoxa ngayo ngokwaziswa kwakho siqu.

  • Iqopha umlando ngawe ngokwakho [ egcinwe i-authom, ngaphandle kwezinye.
  • Ukuhlelwa kwamarekhodi okholelwa ukuthi awanembile, awasebenzi, noma afika ngesikhathi.
  • I-Consing ukuveza [ yamarekhodi akho ku-"menu" ku-"3:1] (ngaphandle kokuba i-opactive isebenzise, njengokugcinwa komthetho noma ukusetshenziswa kwenqubo okushicilelwe i-authority).
  • Lungisa inxusa [ uma liphula i-Act futhi likulimaza.

I-Ascrect ye-National Archives Act isebenza kuphela ezimisweni zamarekhodi ezilondolozwe yizinhlangano. Kuyi-sethi ebalulekile ekuhlolweni kwe-social neqoqo lokwaziswa kukahulumeni. Ukuze uthole imininingwane eyengeziwe, vakashela i-National Archives Act [[FLT: 0] Act.

UMthetho We - Administrate Procedure (APA)

I-APA iyincwadi yemithetho” yendlela izinhlangano zikahulumeni zenza ngayo imithetho, zokwenza izifungo, futhi zithatha ezinye izenzo. Kudinga izinhlangano ukunikeza isaziso somphakathi nethuba lokuphawula ngemithetho ehlongozwayo, ukulandela izinqubo ezilungile lapho kuqulwa, nokunikeza izizathu zezinqumo zazo. I-Crucily, i-APA ikuvumela ukuba ucele inkantolo ukuba ubeke eceleni izenzo zenhlangano “eziwukungaqondisi, ukusetshenziswa kabi kokuhlakanipha, noma ukungavumelani nomthetho.” Lena yindlela eyinhloko izakhamuzi ezibekela ngayo izinqumo zegatsha eziphethe. Ngokungavumelani nenzuzo yokushaya umthetho.

Ukubukeza kwe-Judicial ngaphansi kwe-APA: Ukuletha icala, kumelwe ukuba uke wabhekana necala elingokomthetho noma wathintwa kabi yinqubo yenhlangano. Kumelwe ukhiphe amakhambi okuqondisa kuqala (umzekelo, isikhangiso esingaphakathi kwenhlangano), futhi khona - ke ungakhomba enkantolo yesifunda. I-APA ayidali ilungelo lokukhokha; inikeza indinga yokubukeza yemithetho egunyaziwe noma umthetho-mthetho-sisekelo.

Ukufinyelela Imfanelo Yobulungisa Elinganayo (EAJA)

Uma umangalela uhulumeni kahulumeni ngempumelelo ngesenzo senhlangano futhi isikhundla sikahulumeni “asifaneleki,” i-EAJA ingafuna ukuba uhulumeni akhokhe izindleko zommeli wakho. Lokhu kukhuthaza abantu ukuba babeke inselele kukuziphatha okungenangqondo kukahulumeni ngaphandle kokwesaba ukuchotshoza izikweletu ezingokomthetho.

Amalungelo Aqondile Emihlanganweni Yegatsha Eliphethe Kanye

Ukuqhubeka Kohambo Lokufuduka

Uma ususa (izehlakalo), unamalungelo abalulekile:

  • Ilungelo lokumelelwa ummeli (ngezindleko zakho).
  • Ilungelo lokuqulwa icala phambi komahluleli othuthela kwamanye amazwe.
  • Ilungelo lokufaka isicelo sosizo njengesiphephelo, ukususwa kwesakhiwo, noma ukulungisa isimo.
  • Ilungelo lokudlulisela isinqumo esibi eBhodi LokuHlakulela Izindawo Zokuxhumana bese lidluliselwa enkantolo kahulumeni.

Akufanele usayina lutho ngaphandle kokuqonda, futhi akumelwe ulilahle ilungelo lakho enkantolo ngaphandle kokuthintana nommeli. Ihhovisi Eliphethe I-Immigration Review (EOIR) linikeza ukwaziswa kwangaphandle ngewebhusayithi [[FLT: 0] yayo.

Izinhlelo Ezizuzisayo

I-Accountings enjenge-Social Security Administration (SSA), i-Dervince of Veterans Affairs (VA), kanye ne-Dervince of Agriculture (izitembu zokudla/SNAP) kumelwe zilandele imithetho eqinile lapho ziphikwa, zincishiswa, noma ziqedwa izinzuzo. Unelungelo njalo lokuba:

  • Thola incazelo elotshiwe yesinqumo.
  • I - metary icela ngezinsuku ezingu - 60 noma ezingu - 90.
  • Cela ukuqulwa kwecala phambi komahluleli womthetho (ALJ).
  • Ninikeza ubufakazi nofakazi.
  • Nimelelwe ummeli noma omunye ummeleli ofanelekayo (izifebe ngokuvamile ziqondiswa noma ziphathwe kabi abantu abathola imali encane).

Ukuze uthole usizo ku-SSA, bheka ikhasi elikhangayo le-SSA. [

Abagqugquzeli Nobathandi Bakahulumeni

Uma wenza ibhizinisi nohulumeni kahulumeni, unamalungelo ngaphansi koMthetho weContract Disputes and the Small Business Act. Ungabekela inselele izivumelwano, ukuthatha inkokhelo ngomsebenzi owenziwe, futhi ufune ukubukezwa kwezenzo ezimbi. Amalungiselelo e-Federal Acquisition Regime (FAR) adinga izinhlangano zokwelapha abakhi ngokufanelekile.

Umsebenzi Wesifunda

Uma usebenzela igatsha eliphethe (kuhlanganise nebutho lezempi), unamalungelo akhethekile njengezisebenzi zikahulumeni. I-Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) izwa izikhalo ezingalunganga zezenzo ezinjengokudubula, ukubhoboza, nokususa indle. Uvikelekile futhi ekuphindiseleni ngempempelo ngaphansi koMthetho we-Whistletrop Protection Act.

Indlela Yokuqinisekisa Amalungelo Akho: Izinyathelo Eziwusizo

Ukwazi amalungelo akho kuyingxenye kuphela yokulwa. Nansi indlela yokuwasebenzisa ngokuphumelelayo:

  1. Uxwebhu yonke into. Ugcine amakhophi azo zonke izinhlamvu, amafomu, ama-imeyili, namanothi ezingcingo nezikhulu zezenhlangano. Umlando wezinsuku, amagama, kanye nalokho okushiwoyo. Lokhu kwenza indlela yephepha ebaluleke kakhulu ekudluliseni izikhalo noma emacaleni.
  2. Ngaphansi kwezinsuku ezimisiwe. Amalungelo amaningi anemingcele eqinile yesikhathi. Ngokwesibonelo, isikhalo se-FOIA kumelwe sigcinwe phakathi nezinsuku ezingu-90; isikhalo se-Social Security phakathi nezinsuku ezingu-60; ukuphikisana kwesivumelwano phakathi nezinsuku ezingu-90.
  3. Sebenzisa izicelo ezingokomthetho. Lapho ucela ukwaziswa noma ukhanga isinqumo, bhala isicelo sakho uthumele ngeposi eligunyaziwe noma nge-openthial esemthethweni yenhlangano. Ama-imeyili e-email e-gnculisayo anganganakwa.
  4. Cela ummeli. Ezindabeni eziyinkimbinkimbi] [ikakhulukazi] zokufuduka, umsebenzi kahulumeni, noma izivumelwano zikahulumeni] ummeli osebenza ngolwazi lomthetho wokuphatha. Izinhlangano eziningi zosizo olungokomthetho zinikeza usizo olukhululekile noma oluphansi kubantu abaholelwa imali ephansi.
  5. Hlanganisa abameleli bakho abakhethiwe. Amahhovisi eKhongolose ngokuvamile anezisebenzi ezisebenza ngecala ezingakusiza ukuba usebenzise izikhundla ze-athom. Incwadi evela kwilungu leSishaya-Mkhandlu ingakukhulula ukusabela ngezinye izikhathi.
  6. [ Icala elikhanselwa umhloli jikelele wenhlangano. Uma usola ukukhwabanisa, udoti, ukuxhaphaza, noma ukuziphatha okubi, i-Inspecter General ingahlola futhi ituse isinyathelo sokulungisa.
  7. Lungisa uma kudingekile. Uma wonke amakhambi okuphatha ephelile futhi usakholelwa ukuthi inxusa lephule amalungelo akho, ungafaka icala enkantolo kahulumeni. Izinkampani eziningi zomthetho zesithakazelo zithatha amacala anjalo.

Ongakwenza Uma Ucabanga Ukuthi Amalungelo Akho Aye Ophulwa

Uma ubhekana nalokho okukholelwa ukuthi kuwukuthatha isinyathelo esingekho emthethweni esithathwa isikhulu segatsha noma inhlangano ephethe, landela lezi zinyathelo:

  • Hlala uzolile futhi ungalwi. Ekubhekaneni nokugcinwa komthetho noma izikhulu zokufuduka, kungcono ukwenza ngokuvumelana ngokomzimba ngisho noma ukholelwa ukuthi isenzo singekho emthethweni. Ungabekela inselele ngokomthetho kamuva.
  • uthi ufuna ukuthula. Ezimweni eziningi (ngaphandle kokuba phakathi nesikhathi sokuqhubeka lapho ufungela khona ukuba ufakazele), unelungelo lokuthula ukuze ugweme ukuzithulisa. Ungathi, “Ngisebenzisa ilungelo lami lokuthula futhi ngingathanda ukukhuluma nommeli.”
  • [ Ungasayini lutho ngaphandle kokulifunda ngokucophelela. Uma ungaqondi, cela umhumushi noma wenqabe ukusayina uze uthole iseluleko esingokomthetho.
  • Ibonisa ubufakazi. Uma kungenzeka, bhala amaphuzu ngokushesha ngemva kwesenzakalo. Khuluma igama lesikhulu nenombolo yamabheji, isikhathi nendawo, nanoma imuphi ofakazi. Ubufakazi bevidiyo bungaba namandla kodwa buqaphele imithetho yokuqopha izikhulu zikahulumeni obala (zivame ukuvikela inkulumo).
  • Ukuhlangana nommeli noma inhlangano yokungafundi. Amaqembu anjenge i-American Civil Libereties Union (ACLU) inikeza isiqondiso kanye nokusekela ukuphulwa kwamalungelo omphakathi ngezinye izikhathi.
  • Umbombo wesikhalo. [ Ungafaka isikhalo ehhovisi lezindaba lenhlangano, iHhovisi loMhloli jikelele, noma uMnyango Wezobulungisa Bomphakathi Wase-U.S.

Izinganekwane Ezivamile Ngamalungelo Egatsha Aphakeme

Inganekwane: UMongameli ulawula yonke into, ngakho angikwazi ukumelana nohulumeni.

Iqiniso: Nakuba igatsha eliphethe linamandla, izinkantolo ziqondisa ngokuqinile, iNkantolo Ephakeme iye yaziqeda ngokuphindaphindiwe izenzo zomongameli ezeqisa imingcele engokomthetho.

Inganekwane: Anginawo amalungelo uma ngingeyena isakhamuzi.

Iqiniso: UMthetho-sisekelo uvikela “abantu” hhayi nje“ abantu abahlala khona.” Ukungahlangani phakathi kwe-U.S. ngokuvamile kunenqubo efanelekile namalungelo eSichibiyelo Sokuqala, nakuba amanye amalungelo (njengokuvota) elinganiselwe ezakhamuzini. Izenzakalo zokuthatha indawo zinikeza amalungelo athile futhi kubantu abangewona ama-octal.

Inganekwane: Izicelo ze - FOIA azisizi ngoba izinhlangano zihlale zithi cha.

Iqiniso: Izicelo ze-FOIA zivame ukuphumelela. Ngonyaka ka-2022, izinhlangano zathola izicelo ezingaphezu kuka-80 000 futhi zanikeza isilinganiso esincane sazo. Ukuphikelela kanye namasu afanelekile okuhlela amalunga acishe abe ngu 85%.

Lapho Ungathola Khona Usizo

Uma udinga usizo lokuqonda noma ukugcizelela amalungelo akho, cabangela lemithombo:

Isiphetho

Igatsha eliphethe likhulu futhi lithinta ukuphila kwakho ngezindlela eziningi, kodwa awunamandla. Umthetho-sisekelo, imithetho kahulumeni, nezinqumo zenkantolo zikunikeza iqoqo elikhulu lamalungelo okuqinisekisa ubulungisa, ukuba sobala, nokulandisa. Ngokuqonda lamalungelo (‘ilungelo lokwaziswa, ukuphathwa kahle, inqubo efanelekile, isivikelo esilinganayo, nekhono lokubekela izinqumo zikahulumeni inselele, futhi uma kudingekile, ungaxhumana ngokuqiniseka nezinhlangano futhi, uphindisele emuva esenzweni esingekho emthethweni. Gcina lesiqondiso njengendlela, sifakazela ukusebenzelana kwakho, futhi unganqikazi ukufuna usizo olungochwepheshe uma izigxobo ziphakeme. Amalungelo akho akhona ukuze akuvikele; ukwazi ukuthi ziyisinyathelo sokuqala sokuzenza ezingokoqobo.
