One of the key reasons is that more men hold the higher-paying, senior jobs in the White House, and more women hold the lower-paying, junior jobs.
Today, there are 87 male White House officials who make more than $100,000, compared to 53 female White House officials. The gap narrows, but persists, at the highest echelons of the White House. Among the most senior officials, there are two more men than women.
So easy to make someone or something look bad when you decide to end your copy and paste at the paragraph before it explains why.

The White House is the first to try to make others look bad with the same types of statistics. They are the ones who created this silly "War on Women" mantra. If they want to keep using the mantra, it's going to be used against them, as well. Let's just be honest--no one is conducting a war on women. It's a cheap political phrase designed to get a certain type of female voter to the polls. Women have never had it any better in the workplace, and the primary reason for any difference in pay is due to the women leaving the workforce for a period of time to raise children. 3/5 of enrollees at colleges are now women. That is going to make for some interesting disparities in pay in the years ahead. When that time comes, I highly doubt anyone will be talking about a "War on Men." And interestingly, no one is interested in looking at why men are now turning away from college and trying to fix that disparity.

Are elected positions excluded from the average salary used in this article?
