$20 Billion Hidden in the Swamp: Feds Redact 255,000 Salaries
The Office of Personnel Management is responsible for hiding information about the salaries of 20% of all federal workers. The data is redacted from public records, so taxpayers cannot find out how much is being paid to high-level bureaucrats. The total is a whopping $20-billion each year. President Trump has the power to put this to an end in a heartbeat by replacing the Director of The Office of Personnel Management, Kathleen McGettigan, a 25-year bureaucrat whose salary is not shown. There is no indication so far that Trump has any interest in changing the status quo.
