(The Hill) — The top earners in the Obama White House take home $172,200 a year, according to figures posted on whitehouse.gov Friday afternoon.
Twenty-one administration officials earn the top salary, including Chief of Staff Bill Daley, top healthcare adviser Nancy-Ann Deparle, senior adviser David Plouffe and White House spokesman Jay Carney.
“Since 1995, the White House has been required to deliver a report to Congress listing the title and salary of every White House Office employee,” a post on the White House website states.
The lowest salary paid is $41,000.
Three White House advisers apparently work for free: Patricia McGinnis, Jessica Schumer and Shale Wong take home $0.00 per year.
President Obama earns $400,000 per year.
