TRUMKA’S BIG BUCKS
UNION BOSS MAKES EIGHT TIMES AS MUCH AS THE AVERAGE AMERICAN

BY: Washington Free Beacon Staff - April 23, 2012 5:52 pm

In an email announcing the new AFL-CIO Executive PayWatch website, the leader of the nation’s largest union organization encourages members to fight excessive executive salaries. But in doing so, he risks training fire on his own impressive pay package.

In a recent email to union “e-Activists,” AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka encourages union members to visit the site, calling it “your one-stop shop for the most recent information on out-of-control CEO pay and what you can do to stop it.”

Trying to stir union members into protesting the disparity between the wages of CEO’s and the worker’s they manage, Trumka’s email said, “Runaway CEO pay isn’t just bad for our economy, it’s bad for the morale of working families, too. All workers, from the executive suite down to the shop floor, contribute to making a company successful. But these corporations are buying into the myth that the success of a corporation is the result of its CEO alone.”

As President of the union, Trumka makes over eight times as much as the average American worker.

According to the Center for Union Facts, Trumka brought home a gross salary of $264,827 in 2010, plus another $18,513 in additional compensation, to represent his union. The union leader has earned well over $200,000 every year since he was promoted to Secretary Treasurer in 2003.

In 2011, Trumka earned $293,750.................................>>>>........................>>>>.......................http://freebeacon.com/trumkas-big-bucks/

Union bosses are doing God's work, that money is justified.

The International Union bosses only care about one thing, more money to fund their political agenda and support their lavish lifestyle at the members expense.
