Treasury 020 awards tagged to California

Department of the Treasury as awarding agency, California as place-of-performance: 1,968 records summing to $5,943,605,361.95. A Department of the Treasury award coded outside CA is out. An award in California from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. California (CA) excludes Nevada, Oregon, Arizona, and Hawaii. State tax administration is a different government.

One thousand nine hundred sixty-eight awards is a mid-count Treasury 020 file: thicker than a few-hundred fiscal-vehicle list, thinner than an assistance flood. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 1,968 as 1,968 unique individual tax refunds, taxpayer counts, or Franchise Tax Board collections. The overlay Department of the Treasury in California is the both-keys table. California federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of the Treasury is the agency book without a CA filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

This slug’s -2 suffix marks a distinct packet snapshot for agency 020 × CA. It is not a second awarding agency. Correlation is not causation: California did not “cause” $5,943,605,361.95 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 020 × CA only.

Refunds still sit outside this award file

$5,943,605,361.95 does not measure individual tax refunds, taxpayer counts, or Franchise Tax Board collections. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 020 and a CA place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 1,968 awards as a census of individual tax refunds, taxpayer counts, or Franchise Tax Board collections. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If California federal spending or Department of the Treasury matched $5,943,605,361.95 and 1,968, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Nevada, Arizona, and Oregon Treasury joins are other pairs, not addends.
