Capitol View

A look inside the Washington offices

Posted at 3:19 PM on September 19, 2006 by Bob Collins (3 Comments)

If you're one of those people who likes to find out how much other people make, you'll love this Web site. LegiStorm lists the congressional staff salaries for every rep and senator in Washington.

Here's Minnesota.

And you can click on each employee and see a list of salary breakdowns.

It's got to be a very popular Web site in each Washington office, I imagine.

I particularly enjoy the Google ads that come up when you check on a specific candidate. Betty Boop?

Holy cow... that does seem like a lot of people... especially the Senators! What a great resource though, thanks for sharing.

Hey, the link is broken. It didn't work for me. Too much traffic?
