FY2024 obligations in Arkansas’s 2nd district

Federal award files on USAspending.gov show $11.6 billion in FY2024 obligations whose place of performance is Arkansas’s 2nd congressional district. That total is obligations, not outlays. 10,249 awards share the AR-02 performance tag. SpendingVault indexes those records on the Arkansas District 02 hub. AR-02 is a numbered House seat, not Arkansas’s unspecified 90 code. Keep $11.6 billion and 10,249 awards on the 2nd district’s FY2024 place-of-performance hub.

Key figures

  • FY2024 place-of-performance obligations in Arkansas District 02 total $11.6 billion.
  • The extract counts 10,249 awards for AR-02.
  • Geography is USAspending place of performance, not HQ.
  • AR-02 is a mapped House district, not a 90/98 bucket.
  • Cite $11.6 billion as obligations, not outlays.

$11.6 billion on the FY2024 award file

The $11.6 billion figure is the obligation sum for awards whose USAspending place of performance is Arkansas District 02 in fiscal year 2024. A commitment on an award record is not the same as a Treasury disbursement. Arkansas’s state budget is another series and is not this total. 10,249 awards are the matching count, a separate column.

First year and last year in the packet are both 2024. Do not treat $11.6 billion as a multi-year stack. Federal FY2024 starts October 1. USAspending.gov can still correct rows, which would move the indexed $11.6 billion and the 10,249-award count. Anyone stacking a later fiscal year onto $11.6 billion is adding a number this packet does not contain. SpendingVault indexes AR-02 as FY2024 place-of-performance obligations only; the $11.6 billion figure does not include later fiscal years and does not convert 10,249 awards into unique firms.

AR-02 as a performance map, not an HQ map

Place of performance is the geography this page uses. Recipient headquarters can sit in another Arkansas district or another state while the work is coded AR-02. The opposite pattern also appears: a District 02 address on the recipient file does not force every dollar onto this page. The 10,249 rows follow that field, not the contractor’s legal address.

District 02 is a numbered House seat. Arkansas dollars that USAspending could not map to a voting district are stored in district 90 (unspecified) or 98 (non-voting). Those buckets are separate pages, not hidden rows inside AR-02. Unspecified Arkansas dollars live under 90 or 98, not inside the $11.6 billion mapped total.

10,249 award rows in District 02

10,249 awards is a FY2024 record count for AR-02 place of performance. Modifications and assistance actions can each add a line. The packet does not rank District 02 and does not list unique recipients.

Keep $11.6 billion and 10,249 awards as two facts. Dividing them would invent a typical award size this file does not contain. The Arkansas District 02 hub is the table of records. 10,249 rows make a sizable extract, still not a vendor census. $11.6 billion remains the FY2024 obligation roll-up.

Obligation series only for Arkansas District 02

SpendingVault’s AR-02 copy cites obligations: $11.6 billion committed in FY2024 award files. Outlays are cash out the door and can lag. Mixing the two series makes District 02 look inconsistent when the files are measuring different events.

If an Arkansas spending chart uses recipient location or calendar year 2024, it is not this page. Stay with place of performance, FY2024, and obligations when quoting $11.6 billion. Cite AR-02 as FY2024 USAspending.gov place-of-performance obligations of $11.6 billion on 10,249 awards.

Arkansas statewide versus AR-02

The Arkansas state page is the statewide obligation index. District 02 is one mapped performance district inside Arkansas. Statewide Arkansas includes other numbered seats and any unspecified buckets; this packet does not quote that statewide sum.

Use the all-districts index to open other Arkansas place-of-performance pages in the same format. Compare on FY2024 obligations only. This file does not publish a rank for AR-02. Use AR-02 only for the 2nd district file.

Reading Arkansas District 02’s row count beside the dollars

The 10,249-award count for AR-02 is FY2024 record volume, not a vendor census. SpendingVault indexes those rows next to $11.6 billion in obligations. Neither column explains the other, and this packet does not rank District 02 against other Arkansas seats.

Comparisons built on headquarters ZIP or Treasury outlays need a rebuild on place of performance and federal FY2024 before $11.6 billion belongs in the grid. The Arkansas state hub and the all-districts index stay on obligations.

Arkansas District 02’s FY2024 extract is $11.6 billion in USAspending.gov place-of-performance obligations on 10,249 awards. AR-02 is a numbered House seat, not a 90 or 98 bucket. Federal FY2024 is the entire year window. 10,249 rows are not unique recipients. $11.6 billion is not an outlay total and not Arkansas’s state budget. The Arkansas District 02 hub holds the indexed records; the all-districts index opens other Arkansas seats on the same series.

Questions

How much federal spending is in Arkansas’s 2nd district?
USAspending.gov records $11.6 billion in FY2024 obligations with place of performance in Arkansas District 02. That is not an outlay total and not Arkansas’s state budget. The matching award count is 10,249 for FY2024. The packet window is FY2024 only.
Does AR-02 mean the recipient is headquartered in the 2nd district?
No. USAspending codes the district by place of performance. A recipient based outside AR-02 can still appear if the performance location is the 2nd district. An AR-02 mailing address can also send dollars to other districts when performance is coded there.
Is the $11.6 billion for Arkansas District 02 cash paid?
No. $11.6 billion is an obligation aggregate. Outlays are a separate USAspending series. SpendingVault does not convert AR-02 obligations into Treasury outlays. Cite the figure with the obligation label and the FY2024 window. Keep the obligation label, the FY2024 window, and the matching award count when the figure is reused.
How many awards are tagged to Arkansas District 02?
10,249 awards are counted for AR-02 place of performance in FY2024. That is a record count, including modifications, not a unique-recipient roster. This packet does not invent a typical award from $11.6 billion and 10,249 rows. Keep the two columns separate; this packet does not publish a typical award size or unique-recipient census.

Congressional district is USAspending place-of-performance, not the recipient HQ. District 90/98 are USAspending unspecified/non-voting buckets.
