Department of Justice federal obligations in Arkansas

How DOJ and Arkansas meet in one table

$293,548,685.90 is not Department of Justice's national book with a Arkansas footnote, and it is not Arkansas's all-agency book with a DOJ footnote. It is the intersection only. Delta, ozarks, and river-city folklore stays outside the numeric fields.

Do not convert 2,128 into unique offices or grantees. The field is awardCount. USAspending.gov award actions include new awards, modifications, and other recorded events. This page copies the count; it does not re-label it as people, campuses, or companies.

Open Department of Justice in Arkansas for the filtered table, Arkansas federal spending for the next hub, Department of Justice for the remaining hub, and All spending ties for other pairs.

Reading 2,128 actions without a type split

A typical law-enforcement or grant award would need program and instrument fields. Those fields are absent. The honest caption is: 2,128 actions, $293,548,685.90 obligated, mean about $137,945.81, source USAspending.gov.

A very long award list is a description of 2,128, not a quality judgment. Large or small lists can both be accurate extracts of the same two keys.

Hub pages are larger than this cell

The overlay path is /states/ar/agencies/015/. That path already encodes both AR and agency 015. This ties slug exists so the same pair can be discussed as a relationship page rather than only as a filtered table.

Sibling DOJ overlays in other states are separate cells. They do not have to sum with $293,548,685.90 to a national figure on this page, because no national figure is in the packet.

Keep the obligation word on every reuse

Voice on this packet says to lead with the dollar figure and to name USAspending.gov. It also says the page is a JOIN. Those three instructions are why $293,548,685.90 appears before any geography color.

The canonical path is /ties/department-of-justice-in-arkansas/. The overlay target is /states/ar/agencies/015/. Both describe the same pair: Department of Justice and Arkansas.

Public records, not accusations

Enforcement, litigation, and justice-grant folklore is labeled folklore because the packet has no NAICS, CFDA, or program column. Delta, ozarks, and river-city folklore is the same kind of unused path.

All spending ties lists other pairs. Visiting them does not change $293,548,685.90. Each join has its own extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund this USAspending cell. $293,548,685.90 is tagged to Department of Justice and Arkansas, not to FEC receipts.

Index, overlay, and statewide hub

Place-of-performance Arkansas is statewide; it does not split Little Rock, Fayetteville, and Fort Smith. Neighbor-coded work in Missouri, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, or Oklahoma stays out.

All spending ties is an index of joins, not a hidden total that already includes $293,548,685.90. Department of Justice in Arkansas remains the place to verify the live rows. Place-of-performance Arkansas is statewide; it does not split Little Rock, Fayetteville, and Fort Smith. Neighbor-coded activity in Missouri, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, or Oklahoma stays out even if mail is handled in Little Rock. Correlation is not causation. Enforcement, litigation, and justice-grant folklore can be a legitimate research question on another page. Here it is labeled folklore because the packet has no NAICS, CFDA, or program column. Delta, ozarks, and river-city folklore is the same kind of reader path: useful for search, unused as math. Agency 015 on a different state's overlay is a sibling join, not a remainder that must add to a national DOJ budget on this page. Arkansas's $293,548,685.90 cell stands alone. Do not subtract it from Department of Justice and call the difference 'Arkansas versus everywhere else' without a published national total in this packet — there is none. Department of Justice is the awarding-agency label stored on the Arkansas overlay; the numeric key is 015. Readers who only remember the short name DOJ still need both the state tag and the agency tag before quoting $293,548,685.90. The 2,128 figure is not a count of unique offices or grantees and is not a count of distinct DOJ programs. Modifications can add rows without adding new vendors. That is another reason the mean of about $137,945.81 is not a typical law-enforcement or grant award. A very long award list is not an office census. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. This file copies overlayTarget /states/ar/agencies/015/ and canonicalPath /ties/department-of-justice-in-arkansas/ from the packet. It does not add a fiscal year, a contractor, or an FEC dollar. If the live overlay later disagrees with $293,548,685.90 or 2,128, trust the table and treat this prose as dated to the extract. Until then, the reusable facts are $293,548,685.90, 2,128 awards, agency 015, Department of Justice, Arkansas (AR), and the obligation unit.
