Transparency begins with salary info

Wednesday, July 1, 2009

You don't see this every day. Transparency at the White House begins with salary information. Today, the White House publicly disclosed its Annual Report to Congress on White House Staff. This information is now available on the White House blog:
  • Lowest annual salaries listed are $36,0000 (Staff Assistants)
  • Highest annual salaries listed is $192.934 (Director of Public Health Policy)
Now that's transparency! So if you're interested in pursuing a government career in public health policy, you can have a realistic idea of what type of salary you may make someday if you reach the director level. To get to the White House blog and to see the detailed salary listings, click here.

Unquote.

Three hundred and sixty thousand US dollars is more than what I expect a Staff Assistant to make in a month.
