Montana’s USAspending obligation file

Montana’s $50.18B obligation sum

The $50.18B Montana total is a sum of obligation amounts on USAspending.gov awards for FY2024–2026. An obligation is a commitment on an award. It is not an outlay and not a Helena budget line. SpendingVault does not convert $50.18B into cash already paid.

Keep the two-decimal form. Rounding Montana would leave the indexed extract. The matching volume statistic is 125,364 awards. Both figures come from USAspending.gov as indexed on the Montana spending hub.

125,364 awards in the Montana extract

125,364 awards is a record count. Modifications and assistance actions in the source add rows. It is not a unique-recipient roster, and this packet does not publish one. Dollars and rows can move independently.

The Montana hub shows $50.18B beside 125,364 awards so readers do not infer one from the other. This page does not invent a typical award size from those two totals.

Montana’s FY2024–2026 index

Montana’s posted numbers combine federal fiscal years 2024, 2025, and 2026. The $50.18B is a window total. It is not a FY2026-only figure and not a calendar-year stack. Federal fiscal years begin on October 1.

USAspending.gov still takes corrections. A later ingest can move $50.18B and 125,364 awards. Cite the current index with the FY2024–2026 label. This packet has no ingest clock.

Montana’s $50.18B is a FY2024–2026 obligation index from USAspending.gov, not a Helena budget line and not a Treasury cash clock. Federal fiscal years begin on October 1. The 125,364-award count uses the same window. Refreshing the Montana hub can change both numbers when the award file is corrected.

Montana’s 125,364 awards and $50.18B share FY2024–2026 on USAspending.gov. Record count is not a vendor census. Dollar sum is not an outlay total. The Montana spending hub lists both.

Montana’s $50.18B and 125,364 awards are the FY2024–2026 pair. Cite both. The Montana spending hub does not convert them into Helena budget lines or into cash leaving the Treasury. Agency and comparison pages keep the obligation unit.

Montana’s $50.18B and 125,364 awards stay obligations on USAspending.gov after you open agency or comparison pages. The Montana hub does not switch series in the background.

Keep Montana’s $50.18B labeled as USAspending.gov obligations on 125,364 awards for FY2024–2026 in every reuse.

What Montana’s hub leaves aside

The Montana hub is not a catalog of every federal dollar in the state. It is an award-obligation index. Flows that never become USAspending.gov awards sit outside $50.18B. State budget documents remain a separate book.

If a Montana federal-spending headline disagrees with $50.18B, check the series and the year. Do not force an outlay table onto these 125,364 award rows. Stay with obligations for FY2024–2026.

125,364 awards describe record volume, including modifications in the source. $50.18B describes commitments. They are independent columns. Inferring a typical Montana award from those two facts would invent a statistic this packet does not include.

Helena’s budget is not this series. Keep $50.18B labeled as obligations. Related tables on this site stay on that definition and do not invent an agency mix this packet omits.

Further Montana tables

Agency pages, state comparisons, and per-capita rankings branch from the Montana spending hub. They keep the obligation unit. None recode $50.18B as Treasury outlays or as Montana’s state budget.

Use those pages when statewide Montana is too coarse. This packet has no agency mix. The facts to carry forward are $50.18B, 125,364 awards, and FY2024–2026 from USAspending.gov.

The Montana spending hub lists award obligations. Non-award federal flows sit outside $50.18B. Agency pages, state comparisons, and per-capita rankings keep the obligation unit and do not recast Montana as outlays. This packet has no agency mix to quote.

Reusing Montana’s award-file numbers

A usable Montana citation names $50.18B in federal obligations, FY2024–2026, USAspending.gov award files indexed on SpendingVault, and 125,364 awards. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $50.18B cash outlays.

Side-by-side charts should hold every state to obligations and to FY2024–2026. The Montana spending hub, agency index, comparison tool, and per-capita rankings all follow that rule.

A complete Montana citation names $50.18B in federal obligations, FY2024–2026, USAspending.gov files indexed on SpendingVault, and 125,364 awards. Keep two decimals. Keep the obligation label so the figure is not read as cash already paid.
