Department of Justice federal obligations in Rhode Island

Department of Justice crossed with Rhode Island

This page is a join: Department of Justice as awarding agency 015, Rhode Island as place of performance. The published cell is $111,530,866. That number does not describe every Department of Justice bureau account in the country, and it does not describe every federal award in Rhode Island. Law-enforcement, grant, and court-support folklore is a reader path, not a column in this extract.

The award count is 322 — a mid-size award list. Repeat awards and modifications still add rows; the listed count is not a unique-recipient census and not a census of unique offices or grantees. Names belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars.

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

322 actions without a grant-program pie

322 rows totaling $111,530,866 can be read as a mid-size administrative file. That reading still does not name unique offices or grantees or convert the mean of about $346,369.15 into a typical justice grant or enforcement award.

USAspending.gov remains the filing source. This page copies the join; it does not rebuild the award table.

Providence is not a published geography split

Department of Justice is Department of Justice without a state filter. Rhode Island federal spending is Rhode Island without an agency filter. This slug is the intersection. Citing the nationwide DOJ book as if it were Rhode Island's $111,530,866 cell is a misread of the join.

No metro split of Providence, Warwick, and Newport is published here. Awards coded to Massachusetts or Connecticut are outside this cell even if mail is handled in Providence. The overlay path already encodes both the state tag and agency 015.

Keep $111,530,866 labeled as obligations

$111,530,866 records commitments tagged to Department of Justice and Rhode Island. Payments, recoveries, and cancellations would live in other fields. This extract does not publish those fields.

322 actions can include modifications that change a prior obligation. That is why a record count is not a unique-project census. Use Department of Justice in Rhode Island for the live table. Agency 015 is the awarding-agency key stored on that overlay.

Campaign filings are a different dataset

The join is descriptive. $111,530,866 does not prove that Rhode Island received too much or too little Department of Justice money, and it does not prove that Department of Justice activity caused local outcomes. No performance metric is in the packet.

Campaign-finance filings do not fund this USAspending cell. Department of Justice obligations in Rhode Island and FEC receipts that mention similar words are separate public records. This page does not merge them. Unique offices or grantees are unpublished here, so none are invented.

Index and overlay for Justice in Rhode Island

Department of Justice in Rhode Island remains the place to verify the live rows. All spending ties is an index of joins, not a hidden total that already includes $111,530,866. Place-of-performance Rhode Island is statewide; it does not split Providence, Warwick, and Newport. Neighbor-coded activity in Massachusetts or Connecticut stays out even if mail is handled in Providence. Correlation is not causation. Law-enforcement, grant, and court-support 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. Ocean-state, narragansett, and capital-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. Rhode Island's $111,530,866 cell stands alone. Do not subtract it from Department of Justice and call the difference 'Rhode Island 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 Rhode Island 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 $111,530,866. The 322 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 $346,369.15 is not a typical justice grant or enforcement award. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. This file copies overlayTarget /states/ri/agencies/015/ and canonicalPath /ties/department-of-justice-in-rhode-island/ from the packet. It does not add a fiscal year, a contractor, or an FEC dollar. If the live overlay later disagrees with $111,530,866 or 322, trust the table and treat this prose as dated to the extract. Until then, the reusable facts are $111,530,866, 322 awards, agency 015, Department of Justice, Rhode Island (RI), and the obligation unit.
