And she's still only 27!

It says in the article that the current salary took effect in 2019. Cumulative inflation from 2019 to 2023 is (using monthly estimates for the year which doesn't have official data yet) something in the range of 24%. Combine that with the cap on outside income and this seems fine. There's a lot more to get angry about before this.

EDIT: Additionally, before that, the last pay increase was in 1999. The 1999 to 2019 increase was from $79k to $110k, or a 39% increase, over a period with 53% total inflation. This last increase pretty much just gives the rest of the pay bump from that.
