‘‘The legislative control of the purse is the central pil-
lar—the central pillar—upon which the constitutional
temple of checks and balances and separation of powers
rests, and if that pillar is shaken, the temple will fall.
It is . . . central to the fundamental liberty of the Amer-
ican people.’’
