Wisconsin 2nd District × Education is a place-of-performance join, not a campus census
This page pairs awarding-agency 091, Department of Education, with Wisconsin 2nd District (WI-02) place of performance. The join is awarding-agency 091 crossed with Wisconsin 2nd District (WI-02) place of performance, not Wisconsin’s statewide education book and not a census of campuses. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $2,597,013,987.85 on 220 awards. The extract does not list campuses, districts, or student counts. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which district has more need, and not a claim that 220 awards equal 220 campuses or 220 districts.
VA on agency 036 in Wisconsin 3rd District on this slice is a different agency and a different district. Mixing those listings into $2,597,013,987.85 would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and university enrollment is not causation. Enrollment figures are not in the packet. Place of performance as Wisconsin 2nd District (WI-02) locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $2,597,013,987.85 in a district treasury. Madison folklore is not a county split in this packet. A Madison campus story is not a packet fact and does not explain the cell.
220 Education awards behind the WI-02 obligation sum
Mean obligation is about $11,804,609.04 if $2,597,013,987.85 were divided evenly across 220 lines. That ratio is not a published Pell volume and not a cost per student. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations and modifications. It is not a count of campuses, districts, or students. The 220 rows are a mid-volume grant file.
Two hundred twenty lines are a mid-volume assistance file. Sort the Wisconsin 2nd District overlay by amount to see concentration. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Wisconsin 2nd District for the stored table. Do not convert 220 into a map of Madison-area campuses. The $2,597,013,987.85 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines rather than inferring a campus census.
Agency 091 obligations in WI-02 are not aid already posted to student accounts
Education awards often obligate as grants to state or local agencies and draw as award years proceed. The $2,597,013,987.85 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of aid already disbursed to students and not a Treasury outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. A FSA volume report dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses agency 091, Wisconsin 2nd District (WI-02) geography, and the obligation metric.
The awarding-agency title is Department of Education (code 091). This extract does not split K-12 from postsecondary, and it does not split Pell from Title I. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 220 awards, agency 091, and Wisconsin 2nd District (WI-02). This page will not invent a share. WI-03’s VA overlay on this slice uses agency 036, not 091.
What the WI-02 × agency 091 table omits
The extract has no campuses, districts, or student counts. Facts remain $2,597,013,987.85, 220 awards, agency 091, and Wisconsin 2nd District (WI-02). This page will not invent a ranking against other districts’ agency-091 joins. WI-02’s all-agency district total is far larger than this Education cell; do not quote the cell as the district book.
Wisconsin federal spending and Wisconsin 2nd District place agency 091 among other listings. Department of Education is the national agency hub. All spending ties indexes other district × agency pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of federal spending the packet never computed. The $2,597,013,987.85 figure is the tagged pair only. Campaign-finance filings are a different public-record system; this join does not claim donations funded these obligations.

Start with Wisconsin 2nd District for the 220-award table behind $2,597,013,987.85. Department of Education is the nationwide Department of Education hub. Wisconsin federal spending gives Wisconsin context. All spending ties is the shelf for other district-by-agency joins on the same obligation metric. Two hundred twenty awards totaling $2,597,013,987.85 remain an awarding-agency file, not a campus census. Campus names and aid volumes are not in this packet. The $2,597,013,987.85 total is the tagged pair only. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join. If a later extract revises the rollup, this page’s facts will be stale until the packet is rebuilt. Do not annualize $2,597,013,987.85: no fiscal year is in the facts.
How to read the WI-02 × Education pair
A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is awarding agency 091 (Department of Education). The other is congressional-district place of performance as Wisconsin 2nd District (WI-02). The headline $2,597,013,987.85 is the obligation sum on that intersection, about 4.1 percent of the district’s $63,550,392,256.71 all-agency obligation book. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that Department of Education caused Wisconsin 2nd District (WI-02)’s economy to grow. Correlation between geography and an awarding-agency code is the join — nothing more. Use the internal links to step off this pair. If you need award-level names, open the overlay rather than treating this narrative as a recipient directory.
