How Department of Defense meets Connecticut 2nd District (CT-02)

This page is a join: Department of Defense and Connecticut 2nd District (CT-02). $109,394,233,984.79 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Connecticut’s statewide Department of Defense book, not the nationwide Department of Defense total, and not an outlay register. Connecticut 2nd District is the district parent. Department of Defense is the agency parent. Correlation is not causation.

2,938 is an award-action count. Modifications and delivery orders can add rows. Unique vendors are unpublished. Dividing $109,394,233,984.79 by 2,938 yields about $37,234,253.23 per award, a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical contract and not a headcount of workers. Campaign filings do not fund these obligations.

Department of Defense as the awarding-agency side

Agency 097 is the Department of Defense. The awarding-agency tag does not name installations, platforms, or contractors. This packet does not list those parties. Confusing this join with Connecticut statewide Defense totals or another district’s Defense cell would be a different pair. Packet facts on the agency side are the name Department of Defense, code 097, and the join dollars $109,394,233,984.79.

Department of Defense drops the district filter. Other districts with Department of Defense awards are other ties. This page quotes only Connecticut 2nd District (CT-02). Do not invent installations, primes, or program offices.

Connecticut 2nd District (CT-02) as place of performance

Connecticut 2nd District (CT-02) is a congressional place-of-performance code. It is not proof that every dollar was disbursed to district residents. Awards can list CT-02 while later work occurs elsewhere. Other Connecticut districts are other joins even when the awarding agency is also 097. Connecticut federal spending is the statewide parent.

The district’s all-agency obligation total is $115,274,616,368.22. $109,394,233,984.79 is the Department of Defense slice of that book, about 94.9%. Remaining district dollars sit with other awarding agencies on Connecticut 2nd District. This packet does not split CT-02 by town, county, or facility. Place of performance is a geography field, not a claim that every dollar stayed inside Connecticut 2nd District (CT-02).

Award count, mean, and the district-wide book

2,938 awards against $109,394,233,984.79 implies about $37,234,253.23 per award. That mean is not a unit price and not a jobs figure. With 2,938 rows, a few large instruments can dominate. Treat the count as records in an aggregate, not as 2,938 finished projects or 2,938 unique vendors. All spending ties lists other pairs.

Readers who reuse this snapshot should keep Department of Defense and Connecticut 2nd District (CT-02) in the same sentence, cite USAspending.gov, and treat 2,938 rows as records rather than unique vendors. A later ingest can restate $109,394,233,984.79 without changing the join key of agency 097 and district CT-02. Outlays remain unpublished on this packet. Other Defense district pages are different geography filters on the same agency code.

What the Defense × CT-02 pair cannot prove

An obligation is a legal commitment. $109,394,233,984.79 is that kind of sum. This packet has no outlay total and no fiscal-year split. Citing the figure as cash already spent in Connecticut 2nd District (CT-02) over-reads the field. Do not rank CT-02 against any other district.
