Department of Homeland Security federal obligations in Wisconsin

The Department of Homeland Security shows $1,405,924,131.25 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Wisconsin, across 739 awards. Awarding-agency 070 and Wisconsin (WI) are the pair. Seven hundred thirty-nine awards against $1,405,924,131.25 is a mid-count DHS file, not a thin headquarters-only list. The implied mean is about $1.90 million per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical project. USAspending.gov is the source. Amounts are obligations, not outlays.

Key figures

  • DHS in Wisconsin: $1,405,924,131.25 across 739 USAspending awards.
  • Implied mean about $1.90 million per record — a packet quotient, not a typical project.
  • Agency 070 × WI is not a measure of unique grants, disaster declarations, or named components.
  • Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.

DHS awards tagged to Wisconsin

Department of Homeland Security as awarding agency, Wisconsin as place-of-performance: 739 records summing to $1,405,924,131.25. A Department of Homeland Security award coded outside WI is out. An award in Wisconsin from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Wisconsin (WI) excludes Minnesota, Illinois, Michigan, and Iowa. A Chicago-coded award is Illinois even if a port sits on the lake.

Seven hundred thirty-nine awards against $1,405,924,131.25 is a mid-count DHS file, not a thin headquarters-only list. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 739 as 739 unique unique grants, disaster declarations, or named components. The overlay Department of Homeland Security in Wisconsin is the both-keys table. Wisconsin federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Homeland Security is the agency book without a WI filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

FEMA, CBP, and Coast Guard labels are unpublished. This packet does not say which dominate $1,405,924,131.25. Correlation is not causation: Wisconsin did not cause $1,405,924,131.25 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 070 × WI only.

Not FEMA declarations or a component headcount

$1,405,924,131.25 does not measure unique grants, disaster declarations, or named components. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 070 and a WI place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 739 awards as a census of unique grants, disaster declarations, or named components. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Wisconsin federal spending or Department of Homeland Security matched $1,405,924,131.25 and 739, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Minnesota, Illinois, and Michigan DHS joins are other pairs, not addends.

Wisconsin, not a Great Lakes rollup

Place of performance WI is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Wisconsin (WI) excludes Minnesota, Illinois, Michigan, and Iowa. A Chicago-coded award is Illinois even if a port sits on the lake. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

FEMA, CBP, and Coast Guard labels are unpublished. This packet does not say which dominate $1,405,924,131.25. This packet does not split $1,405,924,131.25 by city, county, or named facility. 739 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

Grant-style volume still records obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $1,405,924,131.25 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Wisconsin confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Wisconsin’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 739-award USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $1,405,924,131.25.

Citing DHS in Wisconsin

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Homeland Security (agency 070) obligated $1,405,924,131.25 on 739 awards coded to Wisconsin. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as unique grants, disaster declarations, or named components.

Prefer Department of Homeland Security in Wisconsin if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Wisconsin federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to WI. Department of Homeland Security is the 070 parent without the WI filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $1,405,924,131.25.

A usable footnote names Department of Homeland Security, Wisconsin, $1,405,924,131.25, and 739. The compact headline $1.41 billion is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $1.90 million is $1,405,924,131.25 divided by 739. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
