Not exactly the 99%: Top union leaders? salaries

Advocating for the working man doesn?t pay too poorly, it seems. Here?s a list of the annual salaries and benefits earned by the nation?s top labor officials, according to the Labor Department. This data is based on 2011 filings:

AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka ? $293,750.

National Education Association President Dennis Van Roekel ? $460,060

Service Employees International Union President Mary Kay Henry ? $290,334.

American Federation of State, County & Municipal Employees President Gerald McEntee ? $512,489.

International Brotherhood of Teamsters President James P. Hoffa , Jr. ? $372,489.

American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten ? $493,859.

International Association of Fire Fighters President Harold Schaitberger ? $323,811.

American Federation of Government Employees President John Gage ? $198,690. (Gage retired this month)

United Food and Commercial Workers President Joseph Hansen ? $361,124

That?s still not in the the league of most top corporate executives, but it?s not bad. Interesting to note too that Trumka, who leads the largest coalition of unions, is on the lower end of the scale.
