FY2024 USAspending obligations in Massachusetts District 03

Fiscal year 2024 award files on USAspending.gov attach $11.0 billion in obligations to place of performance in Massachusetts’s 3rd congressional district. SpendingVault treats that total as obligations, not outlays. 13,426 awards share the MA-03 performance tag. The Massachusetts District 03 hub holds the indexed rows. MA-03 is a mapped House seat, not Massachusetts’s 90 leftover code and not the 8th district’s file. Keep $11.0 billion and 13,426 awards on the 3rd district’s FY2024 obligation hub.

Key figures

  • FY2024 place-of-performance obligations in Massachusetts District 03 total $11.0 billion.
  • The extract counts 13,426 awards for MA-03.
  • Geography is USAspending place of performance, not HQ.
  • MA-03 is a mapped House district, not a 90/98 bucket.
  • Cite $11.0 billion as obligations, not outlays.

The $11.0 billion FY2024 commitment

$11.0 billion is the obligation sum for awards whose USAspending place of performance is Massachusetts District 03 in fiscal year 2024. That commitment is not a Treasury outlay and not Massachusetts’s state budget. This page does not convert $11.0 billion into cash paid. 13,426 awards are the matching FY2024 count for that mapped seat.

Both first year and last year in the packet are 2024. The dollar figure is a one-year roll-up, not a multi-year archive. Federal FY2024 starts October 1. USAspending.gov can still correct rows, which would move the indexed $11.0 billion and the 13,426-award count. Stacking another fiscal year onto $11.0 billion invents a total this packet does not contain. SpendingVault indexes MA-03 as FY2024 place-of-performance obligations only; the $11.0 billion figure does not include later fiscal years and does not convert 13,426 awards into unique firms.

Place of performance, not a Massachusetts HQ filter

MA-03 on this page means the work was coded to the 3rd district, not that the recipient’s legal office sits there. A contractor based in another Massachusetts district or another state can still appear in the $11.0 billion if performance is tagged MA-03. A 3rd-district headquarters can also send dollars elsewhere when performance is coded to another seat.

District 03 is a numbered House seat. Massachusetts awards that USAspending could not assign to a voting district are stored in district 90 (unspecified) or 98 (non-voting). Those residual files are not inside MA-03. The $11.0 billion mapped total excludes those leftover buckets. The 13,426 rows follow the performance field only.

13,426 awards on the 3rd district file

13,426 awards is the FY2024 record count for MA-03 place of performance. Modifications and assistance actions can each add a line. This packet does not invent a typical award from $11.0 billion and 13,426 rows and does not rank District 03 against Massachusetts’s 8th district.

The packet does not list unique recipients. The Massachusetts District 03 hub is the table. Keep 13,426 awards labeled as record volume next to $11.0 billion in FY2024 obligations. A high or mid-range row count is still not a vendor census.

Obligation series versus cash paid

USAspending.gov keeps obligations and outlays as separate series. Massachusetts District 03’s $11.0 billion is the obligation series for FY2024. Outlays can lag those commitments. Mixing series makes the 3rd district look inconsistent when the files are simply measuring different events.

Recipient-location maps and calendar-year 2024 charts are other products. Stay with place of performance, federal FY2024, and obligations when quoting $11.0 billion. A complete MA-03 citation also names the 13,426-award count.

Massachusetts statewide hub versus MA-03

The Massachusetts state page is the statewide obligation index. District 03 is one mapped performance district inside Massachusetts. Statewide Massachusetts includes other numbered seats — including the 8th — and any unspecified buckets; this packet does not quote that statewide sum.

The all-districts index opens other Massachusetts place-of-performance pages in the same format. Compare on FY2024 obligations only. This file does not publish a rank for MA-03. Use MA-03 only for the 3rd district file.

Citing Massachusetts District 03 without mixing maps

Brief $11.0 billion as FY2024 USAspending.gov place-of-performance obligations in Massachusetts District 03, on 13,426 awards. Do not divide the two figures. Do not drop the total onto an outlay chart. MA-03 is a mapped House district, not a 90/98 bucket.

Comparisons built on headquarters ZIP need a rebuild on place of performance before $11.0 billion belongs in the grid. The Massachusetts state hub and the all-districts index stay on obligations. SpendingVault does not convert 13,426 awards into unique firms.

Massachusetts District 03’s FY2024 extract is $11.0 billion in USAspending.gov place-of-performance obligations on 13,426 awards. MA-03 is a mapped House seat, not Massachusetts’s 90 leftover and not the 8th district’s file. 13,426 rows are not unique vendors. $11.0 billion is not cash paid. The Massachusetts District 03 hub is the table; the statewide Massachusetts page mixes other seats this packet does not quote.

Questions

How much federal spending is in Massachusetts’s 3rd district?
USAspending.gov records $11.0 billion in FY2024 obligations with place of performance in Massachusetts District 03. That is not an outlay total and not Massachusetts’s state budget. The matching award count is 13,426 for FY2024. The packet window is FY2024 only.
Does MA-03 mean the recipient is headquartered in the 3rd district?
No. USAspending codes the district by place of performance. A recipient based outside MA-03 can still appear if the performance location is the 3rd district. An MA-03 mailing address can also send dollars to other districts when performance is coded there.
Is the $11.0 billion for Massachusetts District 03 cash paid?
No. $11.0 billion is an obligation aggregate. Outlays are a separate USAspending series. SpendingVault does not convert MA-03 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 Massachusetts District 03?
13,426 awards are counted for MA-03 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 $11.0 billion and 13,426 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.
