A little information please, if anyone knows

I've been looking around a little (very little, I'm at work) and would like to know if anyone has done a definitive study on how much it costs the taxpayer to fund congressional pay, retirement, insurance, etc. If someone know where this info might be, could you be a doll and post a link? thanks
