    Is this in addition to the salary they get ever after?

    (Maybe that’s just the senate, I didn’t remember, but) Why the fuck do they get a salary for the rest of their lives??

      Congress participates in FERS, the same pension system as the rest of the federal government. You can look up how the pension payments are calculated; they’re not exorbitant.
