据新发布的一项报告，美国白宫今年将拿出3712万美元来支付454名工作人员的工资。美国政府内部收入悬殊，约30%的员工每年能拿到10万到20万美元，而有相当一部分员工的年薪还不到5万美元。2011年美国白宫公务员的平均年收入为8.2万美元，而上一年度的平均年薪为8.3万美元。早在1995年，国会就要求白宫递交白宫工作人员头衔及薪水的报告。白宫薪水最高的工作人员包括白宫国土安全和反恐顾问布伦南、白宫发言人卡尼等。 The White House is seen in front of the Washington Monument and the Jefferson Memorial in Washington.
