More than half of the White House staff appointed by President Joe Biden are women and there’s near parity in salaries between genders, according to an administration report.

As of July 1, 2021, 60% of Biden’s White House appointees are female, according to a fact sheet accompanying a report to Congress that details the names, titles and salaries of employees. There is a narrow gender pay gap, with women earning an average of $93,752 and men earning $94,639 — a difference of about 1%, which the White House called “roughly equal.”
