FY2024 USAspending in Louisiana’s 1st district

The $16.0 billion FY2024 obligation file

$16.0 billion is the obligation total USAspending.gov attaches to Louisiana District 01 for fiscal year 2024. The figure is a sum of award commitments, not cash already paid and not Louisiana’s state budget. This page does not translate $16.0 billion into outlays. LA-01’s $16.0 billion is the FY2024 obligation file for that mapped seat. It is not a 90 unspecified bin and not a 98 non-voting bin. 8,211 awards are the matching count.

The packet’s year window is FY2024 only. First year and last year are both 2024. Federal fiscal years start October 1. USAspending.gov can still correct records, which would move $16.0 billion and the 8,211-award count. There is no FY2025 figure in this packet to add to $16.0 billion. Cite the year as federal FY2024 when the 8,211-award count is reused. Do not treat $16.0 billion as a calendar-year 2024 total.

LA-01 place of performance versus headquarters

Congressional district here is the USAspending place-of-performance field. A performance site coded to the 1st district can appear even when the recipient’s headquarters sits in another Louisiana district or another state. A firm with a LA-01 mailing address can also post dollars elsewhere if performance is coded there. A recipient based outside the 1st district can still appear among the 8,211 rows if place of performance is LA-01. Headquarters is the wrong join key.

District 01 is a numbered House seat. Louisiana rows that never received a voting-district number sit in district 90 (unspecified) or 98 (non-voting). Those buckets are not this LA-01 table. Do not merge this page with other Louisiana mapped seats. Unspecified Louisiana performance uses district 90, not this $16.0 billion mapped hub. Keep 8,211 awards on the 1st district’s performance code.

8,211 awards in the District 01 extract

8,211 is a mid-size FY2024 record count for LA-01 place of performance beside $16.0 billion. Modifications and assistance actions can each add a line. The packet does not publish unique recipients or an awarding-agency mix. 8,211 is a row count, not a census of Louisiana firms. Do not compute a typical award from $16.0 billion and 8,211 rows. That quotient is not a packet fact. Use the Louisiana District 01 hub to read individual records. Keep $16.0 billion as the FY2024 obligation roll-up for LA-01.

8,211 remains a record count. Modifications can add rows without turning the extract into a unique-firm list. The Louisiana District 01 hub is the table. $16.0 billion stays the FY2024 obligation roll-up for LA-01. If another briefing quotes a different Louisiana district, that is a different hub with its own packet — not a correction to 8,211 or $16.0 billion.

Obligations, not Treasury outlays

The $16.0 billion total is the obligation series. Outlays measure disbursements and can land in a later fiscal year. Mixing series makes LA-01 look inconsistent when the files are simply counting different events. SpendingVault does not recast this district as cash paid. A FY2024 obligation can fund later invoices; a later modification can change net amounts without turning this page into a cash register.

Recipient-location maps, calendar-year totals, and state budget documents are other products. Match geography, year, and series before treating a disagreement with $16.0 billion as an error. Cite LA-01 as FY2024 USAspending.gov place-of-performance obligations of $16.0 billion on 8,211 awards. Do not mix that total into an outlay sheet or a headquarters extract.

Louisiana statewide and the district index

Louisiana’s state hub is the statewide obligation view. LA-01 is one mapped place-of-performance district inside that state. Statewide Louisiana is not equal to District 01. Other Louisiana mapped seats have their own hubs; this packet does not quote those other figures. Stay on LA-01 for the 1st district file.

The all-districts index lists other Louisiana seats and unspecified buckets in the same format. Compare LA-01 only on FY2024 obligations. This packet does not rank the 1st district. Numbered seats and 90/98 leftovers are listed side by side in that index; they are not interchangeable geographies.

Keeping Louisiana District 01 on one series

The $16.0 billion FY2024 obligation total for LA-01 is an indexed USAspending.gov statistic. SpendingVault does not convert 8,211 awards into unique firms or cash paid, and it does not merge District 01 with a 90 leftover page. A complete citation names the 1st district, FY2024, USAspending.gov, place of performance, obligations, $16.0 billion, and 8,211 awards.

Align comparisons to place of performance, federal FY2024, and obligations before placing $16.0 billion next to another Louisiana column. The Louisiana state hub and the all-districts index use the same rules. LA-01’s $16.0 billion and 8,211 awards stay on this page. Do not recode this extract as outlays, and do not treat district 01 as an unspecified bucket.

Questions

How much federal spending is in Louisiana’s 1st district?

USAspending.gov shows $16.0 billion in FY2024 obligations with place of performance in Louisiana District 01. That is not an outlay total and not Louisiana’s state budget. The same extract counts 8,211 awards for LA-01. First year and last year are both 2024. Cite the figure as place-of-performance obligations, not headquarters spending.

Does LA-01 spending mean the contractor is based there?

No. The district is USAspending place of performance, not recipient headquarters. Work coded to Louisiana’s 1st district can belong to a recipient based in another district or another state. A LA-01 mailing address does not force every dollar onto this hub. Only the performance tag puts an award among the 8,211 records.

Are Louisiana District 01’s $16.0 billion outlays?

No. $16.0 billion is an obligation sum from FY2024 award records. Outlays are cash leaving the Treasury. SpendingVault does not convert LA-01 obligations into outlays. Keep the obligation label and the FY2024 window when the figure is reused. The matching award count is 8,211.

How many awards are tagged to Louisiana District 01?

8,211 awards appear for LA-01 place of performance in FY2024. That figure is a record count, including modifications, not a unique-recipient census. This packet does not divide $16.0 billion by 8,211 to invent an average. Use the Louisiana District 01 hub to inspect individual lines.
