Elizabeth Warren — under pressure from rival Pete Buttigieg to reveal her past compensation from corporate clients — announced Sunday that she’s received $1.9 million from private legal work since 1986.
The Massachusetts senator and former Harvard professor made the disclosure amid a tit-for-tat with Buttigieg over previous career assignments: Her legal representation of corporations, and his work at the corporate consulting firm McKinsey. Vying for pole position in Iowa, Warren and Buttitieg have sought to put one another on defense by suggesting the other had something to hide.
Politico:
Let’s do the math-
- A. $1.9 million ÷ 33 years=
So, for over 33 years, Elizabeth Warren earned approximately $58K a year for working on various legal cases/issues. Slow down, Sal; stop the presses!
Senator Warren released her financial records because Mayor Pete “Buttigieg’s campaign has been calling on Warren to release her tax returns from before 2008, when she did private legal work for some large corporations similar to the ones she now rails against.”
