Rep. Alcee Hastings Maxes Out Girlfriend’s Salary for Fifth Straight Year

Rep. Alcee Hastings (D., Fla.) continues to pay his longtime girlfriend the maximum congressional salary of $168,411, and has paid her nearly $2.4 million in salary since 2000.

Hastings also employs his girlfriend's daughter and the wife of a former staffer who was previously convicted of money laundering.

Patricia Williams, the longtime girlfriend who served as co-counsel during Hastings' impeachment trial as a federal judge in the 1980s, has worked out of the congressman's office since 1993. Williams started working for Hastings as a staff assistant and has since been promoted to deputy district director in his Broward County, Florida office.
