How Department of Defense and Texas 13th District (TX-13) meet

Awarding agency 097 and congressional district TX-13 meet here. $29,408,309,761.31 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Defense's nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Texas 13th District (TX-13) ($35,485,144,728.31 is that district parent in this packet), and not an outlay register. 902 awards against $29,408,309,761.31 is a moderate action file. Modifications can add rows without proving 902 unique vendors. Implied mean about $32.60 million is two packet facts divided.

Dividing $29,408,309,761.31 by 902 yields about $32.60 million per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line. Texas 13th District (TX-13) is a second Texas Defense join beside TX-33. Same awarding agency 097, different geography. TX-36 is NASA (080), not Defense. Do not add those cells into TX-13. Open Texas 13th District for the district parent, Department of Defense for the agency parent, Texas federal spending for the state mix, and All spending ties for sibling joins. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $29,408,309,761.31.

Awarding agency 097 as the Department of Defense side

USAspending labels awarding agency 097 as Department of Defense. That code produced $29,408,309,761.31 when crossed with Texas 13th District (TX-13) place of performance. The agency-wide 097 hub does not require TX-13 geography. The district hub does not require Department of Defense. Only the overlay applies both filters, which is why this tie cites 902 awards.

Named facilities, missions, and vendors are not packet facts. 902 awards is an action count. A second Department of Defense slice on another district uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat Texas 13th District (TX-13)'s 097 cell as a synonym for every Department of Defense account.

Texas 13th District (TX-13) as place of performance

Texas 13th District (TX-13) on this join is a USAspending congressional-district geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to Texas 13th District residents.

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $29,408,309,761.31 is that kind of sum for Department of Defense inside Texas 13th District (TX-13) coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register.

Assistance and contract awards can share the same awarding-agency × district rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $29,408,309,761.31 as given.

What the Department of Defense–TX-13 join refuses to say

This page does not rank districts as winners, name laboratories or primes, or convert obligations into jobs. Agency plus district is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. A large TX-13 cell is a description of coded awards, not a management grade.

Do not claim campaign donations funded these awards. FEC.gov and USAspending.gov are different datasets. The tx-33 defense cell, the tx-36 nasa cell, or texas statewide defense remains out of scope.
