Iowa’s high award count and $115.47B total

491,259 Iowa award records

Iowa’s distinctive file statistic on this page is 491,259 awards for FY2024–2026. That is a USAspending.gov record count, including modifications and assistance actions in the source. It is not a unique-recipient roster. This packet does not publish a recipient total.

A file with 491,259 rows still sums to $115.47B in obligations. Record volume is not a substitute for dollars. The Iowa spending hub keeps both columns visible so a busy file is not mistaken for a larger obligation book than $115.47B.

Iowa’s $115.47B obligation sum

The $115.47B Iowa total is a sum of obligation amounts. An obligation is a commitment. An outlay is cash leaving the Treasury. SpendingVault does not convert Iowa’s $115.47B into outlays. Des Moines’s state budget is a different series.

Keep the two-decimal form. Rounding Iowa would leave the indexed extract. Cite $115.47B as USAspending.gov obligations for FY2024–2026, not as cash already paid.
