A recent Whitehouse report on staff compensation states that seventy-percent of the White House staffers who made the top annual salary of $172,200 in 2012 were men and 30 percent were women. In addition, men on the White House staff are paid, on average, $86,260.89 and women are paid, on average, $76,162.65, meaning the average man on the White House staff is paid about $10,098--about 13 percent--more than the average woman.
In Obama's White House, women on average earn only 88.3 percent of what the men earn.
These numbers conflict with the pay-equity philosophy espoused by the Whitehouse and codified into law by the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act. We expect more from this Whitehouse. WE THE PEOPLE respectfully request that the Whitehouse rectify the disparity immediately.
