WASHINGTON, April 18 (UPI) -- Former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice earns as much per speech -- $150,000 -- as former President George W. Bush, says a speakers bureau.
The Washington Speakers Bureau represents political celebrities, including Bush, Rice and former first lady Laura Bush who charges $75,000 for a speech, The Hill reported Saturday.
The quoted fees are flexible and are used as guidelines, said an agent for the bureau.
Bush spoke in March in Calgary, Canada, at a private event and is scheduled to address the Economic Club of Southwestern Michigan on May 28. Rice last month addressed the NFL's annual owners meeting and is scheduled to speak to the Economic Club of Southwestern Michigan April 30, the Hill reported.
