200 highest paid staffers

200 highest paid staffers

This report lists the 200 highest paid staffers, below CEO level, at associations and public interest groups. The information is gathered from the IRS Form 990, the disclosure document that must be filed by tax- exempt organizations, for fiscal years 2010 or 2011—the latest data available. The salary column shows take- home pay (base pay, bonuses and other pay). The deferred column is the amount earned but not yet paid. The nontax column includes the value of nontaxable benefits.
