Nixon Pension Plan Seeks Altered Budget Provisions
Nixon resignation period extends to next June with an administration proposal to provide an average of $35,001 monthly for pension and staff costs, versus a top future budget figure of $37,000. Nixon would retain an annual $60,000 pension plus up to $96,000 for staff salaries and office space. Former presidents Truman and Eisenhower received funds under the Former Presidents Act, though both had left public life before the current transition law. GSA records show Truman averaged $78,000 annually in retirement for 11 years, Eisenhower $92,500 over nine years after leaving office.
