  • USAspending.gov files count 287,505 awards for Alabama in that span.

Alabama’s $307.57B obligation sum

The $307.57B Alabama total is a sum of obligation amounts on USAspending.gov awards for FY2024–2026. An obligation is a commitment on an award. It is not an outlay and not a Montgomery budget line. SpendingVault does not convert $307.57B into cash already paid.

Keep the two-decimal form. Rounding Alabama would leave the indexed extract. The matching volume statistic is 287,505 awards. Both figures come from USAspending.gov as indexed on the Alabama spending hub.

287,505 awards in the Alabama extract

287,505 awards is a record count. Modifications and assistance actions in the source add rows. It is not a unique-recipient roster, and this packet does not publish one. Dollars and rows can move independently.

The Alabama hub shows $307.57B beside 287,505 awards so readers do not infer one from the other. This page does not invent a typical award size from those two totals.

Alabama’s FY2024–2026 index

Alabama’s posted numbers combine federal fiscal years 2024, 2025, and 2026. The $307.57B is a window total. It is not a FY2026-only figure and not a calendar-year stack. Federal fiscal years begin on October 1.

USAspending.gov still takes corrections. A later ingest can move $307.57B and 287,505 awards. Cite the current index with the FY2024–2026 label. This packet has no ingest clock.

Alabama’s $307.57B is a FY2024–2026 obligation index from USAspending.gov, not a Montgomery budget line and not a Treasury cash clock. Federal fiscal years begin on October 1. The 287,505-award count uses the same window. Refreshing the Alabama hub can change both numbers when the award file is corrected.

Alabama’s 287,505 awards and $307.57B share FY2024–2026 on USAspending.gov. Record count is not a vendor census. Dollar sum is not an outlay total. The Alabama spending hub lists both.

Alabama’s $307.57B and 287,505 awards are the FY2024–2026 pair. Cite both. The Alabama spending hub does not convert them into Montgomery budget lines or into cash leaving the Treasury. Agency and comparison pages keep the obligation unit.

Alabama’s $307.57B and 287,505 awards stay obligations on USAspending.gov after you open agency or comparison pages. The Alabama hub does not switch series in the background.

Keep Alabama’s $307.57B labeled as USAspending.gov obligations on 287,505 awards for FY2024–2026 in every reuse.

What Alabama’s hub leaves aside

The Alabama hub is not a catalog of every federal dollar in the state. It is an award-obligation index. Flows that never become USAspending.gov awards sit outside $307.57B. State budget documents remain a separate book.

If an Alabama federal-spending headline disagrees with $307.57B, check the series and the year. Do not force an outlay table onto these 287,505 award rows. Stay with obligations for FY2024–2026.

287,505 awards describe record volume, including modifications in the source. $307.57B describes commitments. They are independent columns. Inferring a typical Alabama award from those two facts would invent a statistic this packet does not include.

Montgomery’s budget is not this series. Keep $307.57B labeled as obligations. Related tables on this site stay on that definition and do not invent an agency mix this packet omits.

Further Alabama tables

Agency pages, state comparisons, and per-capita rankings branch from the Alabama spending hub. They keep the obligation unit. None recode $307.57B as Treasury outlays or as Alabama’s state budget.

Use those pages when statewide Alabama is too coarse. This packet has no agency mix. The facts to carry forward are $307.57B, 287,505 awards, and FY2024–2026 from USAspending.gov.

The Alabama spending hub lists award obligations. Non-award federal flows sit outside $307.57B. Agency pages, state comparisons, and per-capita rankings keep the obligation unit and do not recast Alabama as outlays. This packet has no agency mix to quote.

Reusing Alabama’s award-file numbers

A usable Alabama citation names $307.57B in federal obligations, FY2024–2026, USAspending.gov award files indexed on SpendingVault, and 287,505 awards. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $307.57B cash outlays.

Side-by-side charts should hold every state to obligations and to FY2024–2026. The Alabama spending hub, agency index, comparison tool, and per-capita rankings all follow that rule.

A complete Alabama citation names $307.57B in federal obligations, FY2024–2026, USAspending.gov files indexed on SpendingVault, and 287,505 awards. Keep two decimals. Keep the obligation label so the figure is not read as cash already paid.
