USAspending.gov records $4,004,514,466.78 in Department of Labor obligations with Texas place of performance, across 355 awards. Awarding-agency 1601 and Texas (TX) are the pair. Three hundred fifty-five awards against $4,004,514,466.78 is a thin-to-mid Labor file, close in row count to New York’s Labor cell but a different geography key.

Labor awards tagged to Texas
Department of Labor as awarding agency, Texas as place-of-performance: 355 records summing to $4,004,514,466.78. A Department of Labor award coded outside TX is out. An award in Texas from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Texas (TX) excludes Oklahoma, New Mexico, Louisiana, and Arkansas. An Oklahoma-coded Labor award stays on that other join.
Three hundred fifty-five awards against $4,004,514,466.78 is a thin-to-mid Labor file, close in row count to New York’s Labor cell but a different geography key. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 355 as 355 unique unique workers, UI claims, or apprenticeship seats. Department of Labor in Texas is the both-keys table. Texas federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Labor is the agency book without a TX filter. All spending ties lists other joins.
This Texas Labor join is agency 1601, not Commerce 013 and not PBGC 1602. Those Texas or New York cells are other pages. Correlation is not causation: Texas did not cause $4,004,514,466.78 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 1601 × TX only. Campaign contributions do not fund these USAspending awards.
Award rows are not unique workers
$4,004,514,466.78 does not measure unique workers, UI claims, or apprenticeship seats. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 1601 and a TX place-of-performance tag.
Do not treat 355 awards as a census of unique workers, UI claims, or apprenticeship seats. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Texas federal spending or Department of Labor matched $4,004,514,466.78 and 355, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Oklahoma, Louisiana, and New Mexico Labor joins are other pairs, not addends.
