Why the CNMI is broke

Posted on Jan 30 2012

You want know why the CNMI is broke? One major reason is because of government salaries. CUC executive director Abe Malae makes around $180,000 per year and keeps complaining that CUC is broke. CNMI judges make around $120,000 per year. MVA’s managing director Perry Tenorio makes around $80,000 per year. The CNMI Legislature just passed a bill that will give the CNMI attorney general $130,000 per year. Twenty-nine CNMI lawmakers make about $40,000 per year and have an $80,000 annual budget. Some $3,480,000 is how much the CNMI dishes out annually to keep 29 jobs in the Legislature. Where is the shame?
