DHS awards inside the Texas extract

Filter to Department of Homeland Security. Filter to Texas place-of-performance. Six thousand seven hundred twenty-two records remain, summing to $48,006,094,189.63. A DHS award coded to New Mexico is out. A Defense award coded to Texas is out even when the mission sounds adjacent.

The implied mean is about $7.14 million per award. Components, grants to states and localities, and large acquisition vehicles can share that average. This packet does not split the 6,722 rows by component.

Department of Homeland Security in Texas is the overlay. Texas federal spending is the all-agency state hub. All spending ties lists other pairs. Six thousand seven hundred twenty-two DHS records in Texas sit between a thin Energy file and a thick USDA file. $48,006,094,189.63 is the obligation sum for agency 070 inside TX coding. Department of Homeland Security in Texas does not split CBP from FEMA from Coast Guard.

Border and disaster stories without packet support

Miles of border, migrant-encounter counts, and hurricane-loss totals are not in this extract. $48,006,094,189.63 does not measure those series. It sums award obligations with a 070 awarding-agency code and a TX tag.

FEMA, CBP, Coast Guard, and other components are unnamed here. Do not assign the 6,722 awards to a single component. Do not treat the dollar column as a score of “how much Texas is secured.” Texas did not cause the cell by sharing a border. Geography plus agency code is the join. Causation is not a field. Border miles and encounter counts are not packet facts. Linking $48,006,094,189.63 to those series is a new dataset. Texas federal spending still includes USDA’s 428,412-row cell and every other awarding agency. This join stays 070.
