Washington (CNSNews.com) – Neither the White House nor the Justice Department are saying whether Elena Kagan has been collecting her full government salary since she “ceased” performing her full duties as solicitor general after May 10 when President Barack Obama nominated her to serve on the Supreme Court.
“I’d point you over to the Department of Justice on that. I don’t know what the pay records are,” White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs told CNSNews.com.
Pressed on whether the White House believed she should receive her full salary, Gibbs again said, “I’d point you to the Department of Justice.”
However the Justice Department public affairs office did not respond to numerous inquiries from CNSNews.com on the matter in July.
