What is the Obama family clothing allowance?
All presidents and their families receive the same allowance. The amount was raised in 2001, along with the president's annual salary. President Obama, like President Bush before him, has been paid $400,000 a year; the president also receives $100,000 for travel expenses, and $19,000 for official entertaining. Based on the president's tax returns from 2011, he paid for some of his wife's and daughter's clothing from his salary. It should also be noted that some of the clothes, especially the designer dresses for the First lady and the two Obama girls to wear at special events, are often provided at a greatly reduced amount (or in some cases, no charge at all), because famous designers know that having a first lady (or first daughters) wearing their clothes will cause an immediate boost in sales. I enclose a link to the Barack and Michelle Obama's 2011 tax returns, so you can see what they spent their money on.
