Department of Commerce in Arizona 3rd District (AZ-03)
USAspending.gov records $1,001,532,300.40 in Department of Commerce obligations with place of performance in Arizona 3rd District (AZ-03). That awarding-agency 013 cell is 7.5% of the district's $13,330,251,579.73 published book. The join lists only 11 award records against an eleven-figure total. This page reports the pair, not a ranking of Arizona districts and not a roster of named firms.
Key figures
- USAspending records $1,001,532,300.40 in Commerce obligations in AZ-03 (agency 013).
- That cell is 7.5% of the district's $13,330,251,579.73 book, on only 11 award records.
- 11 rows are not a unique-vendor census.
- The total is commitments, not outlays. FEC donations do not fund this cell.
Commerce × AZ-03 is a short-row, large-dollar cell
Agency 013 and Arizona 3rd District (AZ-03) meet in one place-of-performance cell. $1,001,532,300.40 is the obligation sum tagged to that pair. It is not the district's full $13,330,251,579.73 book, not every Commerce dollar in Arizona, and not an outlay. The Arizona 3rd District hub still lists other awarding agencies; the Department of Commerce hub still lists other districts.
11 rows can still hold $1,001,532,300.40 when large assistance or contract vehicles dominate the file. That is not 11 manufacturers or labs. A reader who names a recipient adds a label the facts do not carry. Correlation with local economic-development news is not causation.
AZ-03's district book beside agency 013
7.5% of $13,330,251,579.73 is tagged to Department of Commerce in this extract. Other awarding agencies fill the rest of Arizona 3rd District. Adding those rows into $1,001,532,300.40 would double-count. The Arizona 3rd District page at /districts/AZ-03/ is the parent without an agency-013 filter.
Department of Commerce at /agencies/013/ drops the AZ-03 filter. Arizona federal spending at /states/az/ drops the district cut. All spending ties at /ties/ indexes other pairs. Do not treat $1,001,532,300.40 as statewide Commerce obligations.
11 records are not a vendor list
11 is the join award-record count, not unique vendors. Dividing $1,001,532,300.40 by 11 would invent a typical award size the packet never published. Unique recipients remain unpublished. Keep the short row count on the join.
