– President Barack Obama designated April 9 as National Equal Pay Day,
even though 70 percent of White House staffers in the top-salary bracket
were men, and male White House staffers earn on average 13 percent more
than female staffers.
“To grow our middle class and spur progress in the years ahead, we
need to address longstanding inequity that keeps women from earning a
living equal to their efforts,” Obama said in the proclamation released
Monday evening. “That is why I have made pay equity a top priority —
from signing the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act days after I took office
to cracking down on equal pay law violations wherever they occur. And to
back our belief in equality with the weight of law, I continue to call
on the Congress to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act.”
CNSNews.com reported
on March 15 that 70 percent of White House staffers earning the maximum
salary of $172,200 last year were men and 30 percent were women,
according to the White House numbers posted on staff compensation.
Further, men on the White House staff are paid $86,260.89 on average.
Women on the White House staff are paid an average of $76,162.65. So men
on the White House staff are paid about 13.26 percent more than women.
Put another way, women earn 88.29 percent of what men earn.
