Department of Education obligations in New York 20th District (NY-20)

Reading agency 091 inside NY-20

Awarding agency 091 and congressional district NY-20 meet here. $8,711,562,756.29 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Education’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to New York 20th District (NY-20), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split Education programs or contract versus assistance instruments. 249 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a student-aid caseload, a school census, or a named-grantee file.

This page reports education awarding activity USAspending tagged to this district. The headline $8,711,562,756.29 sits beside a district-wide obligation total of $56,844,361,473.07; the 15.3% share is arithmetic on those two packet facts, not a ranking of New York districts as winners or losers. District 90 and 98 placeholders are omitted from this harvest. Obligations are not outlays.

Agency 091 without inventing a component pie

USAspending labels awarding agency 091 as Department of Education. That code produced $8,711,562,756.29 when crossed with New York 20th District (NY-20) place of performance. The agency-wide 091 hub does not require NY-20 geography. The district hub does not require Education. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 249 awards. The packet does not split Education programs or contract versus assistance instruments.

Correlation is not causation: New York 20th District (NY-20) did not “cause” $8,711,562,756.29 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 091 × NY-20 only. It is not a student-aid caseload, a school census, or a named-grantee file. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.

How New York York 20th District is coded

New York 20th District (NY-20) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list NY-20 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other New York districts belong on those ties even when the awarding agency is also 091. New York 20th District (NY-20) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside New York. Other New York districts are separate joins even when they reuse awarding-agency 091. New York 20th District (NY-20) is distinct from New York 10th and New York 12th. Do not add those New York joins into agency 091.

New York federal spending shows how agency 091 sits beside other awarding agencies in the same state extract. $8,711,562,756.29 is one district-agency column, not the state table. This packet does not split New York 20th District (NY-20) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different awarding-agency code stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to Department of Education. The district-wide obligation total published here is $56,844,361,473.07; $8,711,562,756.29 is the Education slice of that denominator.

What the dollar figure is allowed to mean

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $8,711,562,756.29 is that kind of sum for Department of Education inside NY-20 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 rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $8,711,562,756.29 as given.

New York’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 249-row Education cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 249 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. Do not annualize without a year field in the packet. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. The implied mean ($34,986,195.81) is a concentration statistic, not a typical NY-20 Education payment.

Parents of this tie: district, agency, state

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Education (agency 091) obligated $8,711,562,756.29 on 249 awards coded to New York 20th District (NY-20). Name Department of Education and New York 20th District (NY-20) together. Keep the obligation word. If New York 20th District or Department of Education has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a student-aid caseload, a school census, or a named-grantee file. 15.3% of $56,844,361,473.07 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score.

Keep Department of Education, New York 20th District (NY-20), $8,711,562,756.29, and 249 awards together. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Department of Education is the 091 parent without a NY-20 filter. New York federal spending is the New York parent. Do not add those parents to this cell. Sharing a district with Education does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. This page reports one USAspending join.

Limits of the NY-20 × 091 snapshot

249 awards is a moderate Education file against a district denominator above fifty-six billion dollars, which keeps the Education share modest. A large row count makes a program split tempting; the packet still does not supply one. A small row count makes a named-facility story tempting; the packet still does not name facilities or contractors. The implied mean (about $34,986,195.81) and the district share (15.3% of $56,844,361,473.07) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer New York 20th District and Department of Education if the live tables moved.

Do not rank New York 20th District (NY-20) as more Education-dependent than neighboring districts on the strength of this cell alone. Neighboring geographies have their own 091 ties with different dollar totals, or no published 091 cell in this harvest. This snapshot holds $8,711,562,756.29 and 249 only. All spending ties is the index, not an addend. Obligations are not outlays. Correlation is not causation.

Agency 091 × NY-20 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not New York’s complete federal ledger. The cell is 15.3% of the district’s published total ($56,844,361,473.07). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $34,986,195.81, a ratio of those two facts only.

Does $8,711,562,756.29 include every Education program in NY-20?

The packet does not split Education programs or contract versus assistance instruments. $8,711,562,756.29 is the combined obligation sum for agency 091 inside NY-20 coding.

Is $8,711,562,756.29 cash already paid in New York 20th District (NY-20)?
