The most recent documented data on Fauci’s salary comes from the public spending transparency website OpentheBooks.c om, which uses information from the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. The current numbers are from 2019 when Fauci earned $417,608, making him the highest-paid federal employee at the time.
But multiple media outlets quote the National Institutes of Health as saying Fauci is now paid $434,312 — more proof that it's possible to land a job that pays well in the federal government.
By comparison, the president’s salary has been $400,000 annually since 2001.
