USAspending.gov obligations in Louisiana District 03

$7.3B on USAspending.gov for the 3rd district

Louisiana District 03 shows $7.3B in FY2024 USAspending.gov obligations for place of performance. The indexed total is $7,336,125,417.11 across 11,512 awards. Those dollars are award commitments, not outlays. LA-03 is a numbered House seat, not an unspecified 90 code.

Until USAspending.gov revises the extract, $7.3B and 11,512 awards are the FY2024 LA-03 stock. The packet does not publish a prior-year comparison. Quote $7.3B with the obligation label and the FY2024 window. LA-03 is Louisiana's 3rd seat: 11,512 awards and $7.3B stay off the 2nd and 4th district pages.

Record count for LA-03 place of performance

11,512 awards share the LA-03 performance tag in FY2024. That count sits in a middle band: large enough that scanning every row by eye is impractical, and not so large that the file is only a six-figure action dump. The packet still does not invent a typical award from $7.3B and 11,512.

Keep 11,512 labeled as record volume. Repeat modifications add rows. The Louisiana District 03 hub is the table. This packet does not rank the 3rd district against other Louisiana seats. LA-03 is Louisiana's 3rd seat: 11,512 awards and $7.3B stay off the 2nd and 4th district pages.

Keeping Louisiana District 03 off leftover bins

Keep Louisiana District 03 off leftover bins. A 90 or 98 Louisiana page, if it exists, is a different geography from the 3rd district. LA-03 is numbered, not unspecified. $7.3B does not include those leftover codes. 11,512 awards are the mapped 3rd action stock for FY2024.

The all-districts index lists LA-03 next to other Louisiana seats and leftover codes. Side-by-side listing does not make those geographies the same. Stay on the Louisiana District 03 hub for $7.3B. Statewide figures live on the Louisiana page, which this packet does not reprint.

The district field on Louisiana District 03

The Louisiana District 03 page is not a directory of firms headquartered in the 3rd district. It is an obligation roll-up for awards whose performance location is coded LA-03. That is why a Louisiana company based outside District 03 can still appear, and why a local HQ can be absent. 11,512 awards follow the performance tag.

Place of performance is the geography this page uses. Recipient headquarters can sit in another Louisiana district or another state while the work is coded LA-03. The opposite pattern also appears: a District 03 address on the recipient file does not force every dollar onto this page. A recipient based outside the 3rd can still appear among the 11,512 rows if place of performance is LA-03.

Outlays are a different Louisiana product

Do not brief $7.3B as money already spent in the 3rd district. Brief it as FY2024 obligations on USAspending.gov with LA-03 place of performance. 11,512 awards are the matching action stock. Cash paid is a separate USAspending series this packet does not quote.

$7.3B is an obligation sum from FY2024 award records. Outlays are a different series. SpendingVault does not convert the Louisiana District 03 obligation total into Treasury outlays. If a Louisiana spending chart uses recipient location or calendar year 2024, it is not this page. Stay with place of performance, FY2024, and obligations when quoting $7.3B.

Using the Louisiana District 03 hub and related pages

Stay on LA-03 for the 3rd district file. Other Louisiana mapped seats have their own hubs; this packet does not quote those other figures. The all-districts index lists other Louisiana seats and unspecified buckets in the same format. A headquarters in the 3rd without a LA-03 tag does not enter this file.

The Louisiana District 03 hub is the live table for LA-03. The Louisiana page is the statewide obligation index. The all-districts index is the directory of other mapped seats and leftover codes. Quote $7.3B only with place of performance, federal FY2024, and the obligation series. LA-03 is Louisiana's 3rd seat: 11,512 awards and $7.3B stay off the 2nd and 4th district pages.

Louisiana District 03 can be quoted in one sentence: $7.3B in FY2024 USAspending.gov obligations on 11,512 awards with LA-03 place of performance. The unrounded packet total is $7,336,125,417.11. That sentence already names the series (obligations), the year (federal FY2024), the geography (place of performance, not headquarters), and the district code (LA-03, a numbered 3rd seat rather than leftover 90/98 or at-large 00). SpendingVault does not add a unique-recipient count, an agency mix, or an outlay conversion. Readers who need the underlying rows should open the Louisiana District 03 hub; readers who need statewide Louisiana should open the Louisiana page. Do not average $7.3B across 11,512 awards. Do not fold unspecified Louisiana leftover dollars into $7.3B. First year and last year in this extract are both 2024.

Questions

How should I cite Louisiana District 03 federal spending?

Cite numbered LA-03, FY2024, USAspending.gov, place of performance, obligations, $7.3B, and 11,512 awards. The exact packet sum is $7,336,125,417.11. Do not call the geography unspecified, at-large, or cash paid. The Louisiana District 03 hub is the table for those rows.

Is District 03 the same as Louisiana's statewide total?

No. The Louisiana statewide hub is a different roll-up. LA-03 is one mapped performance district. Statewide Louisiana includes other numbered seats and any 90/98 buckets. This packet does not publish that statewide sum. $7.3B stays on District 03.

Do 11,512 awards equal unique Louisiana vendors?

No. 11,512 is an award-action count. One recipient can appear many times through modifications or multiple awards. The packet does not include a unique-vendor total, so this guide does not invent one. Keep 11,512 labeled as FY2024 record volume next to $7.3B.

Does $7.3B include later fiscal years?

No. First year and last year are both 2024. $7.3B is the FY2024 place-of-performance obligation total. Do not stack FY2025 or a calendar year onto $7,336,125,417.11. 11,512 awards match that same FY2024 window on LA-03.
