Despite having lived in D.C. for a decade, it had not occurred to me to check HRC's compensation.<br /><br />Thanks to a William Segrave, whom I don't know, who posted a link to HRC's 2014 990 form on the Charity Navigator<br /><br /><br />http://hrc-assets.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com//files/images/campaign/HRC-990-2014.pdf<br /><br />HRC top management salaries are on page 9. Chad Griffin got $404,712, seven of the top executives got over $200K EACH and another got $195K. (See also page 109.) I will let these figures speak for themselves.<br /><br />To put this into further context, Schedule I, beginning on page 103, shows the cash support provided to the 30 organizations that received cash support. I point out that Equal Rights Houston got the whopping amount of $10,000. Equality North Carolina got $25K as did the Equality Foundation of Georgia. We know what the status of equality in Houston and North Carolina is now and what the status of equality in Georgia is likely to be should the sociopaths and psychopaths get their way. I venture to suggest that had the half-million dollars or so wasted on a couple of vice-presidents been used instead for productive advocacy, our brothers and sisters might not now be third-class citizens.EdAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00867807586210871787noreply@blogger.com
