Minnesota federal obligations, FY2024–2026

Minnesota’s $618.83B obligation aggregate

The $618.83B Minnesota figure is a sum of obligation amounts on USAspending.gov awards for FY2024–2026. An obligation is a federal commitment on an award record. It is not cash that has already left the Treasury, and it is not a line in St. Paul’s state budget. SpendingVault does not recode $618.83B as outlays.

Keep the two-decimal form when you reuse the number. Rounding Minnesota into a slogan leaves the indexed extract. The companion count is 462,800 awards in the same FY2024–2026 file. Both statistics come from USAspending.gov as indexed here.

462,800 awards on the Minnesota file

462,800 awards is a record tally. Modifications and assistance actions in the source increment it. The number is not a census of unique Minnesota recipients, and this packet does not publish one. Dollars and rows answer different questions.

The Minnesota spending hub shows $618.83B beside 462,800 awards so readers can see both columns. Inferring a typical award size from those two totals would invent a statistic this packet does not include.

Minnesota’s FY2024–2026 window

Minnesota’s roll-up combines federal fiscal years 2024, 2025, and 2026. A federal fiscal year starts on October 1. The $618.83B is a window total, not a single-year Minnesota run-rate and not a calendar-year stack.

Later USAspending.gov corrections can move both $618.83B and 462,800 awards. Cite the current indexed values and the three-year label. This packet does not include an ingest timestamp to quote.

Minnesota’s $618.83B is stacked from FY2024, FY2025, and FY2026 obligation amounts on USAspending.gov awards. That is a three-year index, not a calendar-year pile and not a St. Paul budget. Federal fiscal years begin on October 1. The 462,800-award count uses the same window and will shift when the file is corrected.

Minnesota’s 462,800 awards are a file statistic for FY2024–2026, not a census of vendors. The $618.83B is the obligation column on the same USAspending.gov extract. The Minnesota spending hub is built to show both, because a quiet dollar week can still add rows and a large commitment can move dollars without a matching jump in count.

What Minnesota’s hub is not

The Minnesota hub lists award obligations. Federal flows that never become awards stay outside $618.83B. That is a definition, not a claim that 462,800 rows are missing their own series. State budget documents remain a separate book.

If a headline about federal spending in Minnesota uses a different magnitude, check whether it used outlays or a different year. Do not force that headline onto $618.83B. Stay with USAspending.gov obligations for FY2024–2026.

Record count and dollars answer different questions. 462,800 awards describe how many rows were written. $618.83B describes how much was committed. Inferring a typical Minnesota award size from those two facts would invent a statistic this packet does not include. Use hub tables for distribution.

Do not mix Minnesota’s $618.83B with an outlay table or with St. Paul’s enacted budget. Those are other series. Agency, comparison, and per-capita views on this site keep the award-obligation definition for FY2024–2026.

Other Minnesota cuts on SpendingVault

From the Minnesota spending hub you can open agency pages, state comparisons, and per-capita rankings. Each still uses obligations. None of them convert $618.83B into Treasury outlays.

Those links help when statewide Minnesota is too coarse. This packet has no agency mix to quote. The documented facts remain $618.83B, 462,800 awards, and FY2024–2026.

The Minnesota spending hub does not list every federal dollar that touches the state. It lists award obligations. Non-award flows sit outside $618.83B. Agency, comparison, and per-capita pages keep that definition and do not recast Minnesota as Treasury outlays.

Citing Minnesota’s award-file totals

Cite Minnesota as $618.83B in federal obligations for FY2024–2026 from USAspending.gov award files indexed on SpendingVault, covering 462,800 awards. Keep the obligation label. Do not call $618.83B an outlay total.

Comparisons should hold every state to obligations and to the same FY2024–2026 window. The Minnesota spending hub, agency index, comparison tool, and per-capita rankings all follow that rule.

Cite Minnesota as $618.83B in federal obligations for FY2024–2026 from USAspending.gov files indexed on SpendingVault, covering 462,800 awards. Keep two decimals. Keep the obligation label so $618.83B is not read as cash already paid.
