Department of Labor (agency 1601) federal obligations in the District of Columbia

USAspending.gov records $3,831,810,801.22 in Department of Labor obligations under awarding agency 1601 with place of performance in the District of Columbia, across 1,491 awards. Mean obligation is about $2.57 million per award ($3,831,810,801.22 ÷ 1,491). The total is not a job-market score for the capital and not an outlay figure.

Outlays, participant counts, and fiscal years are not in the packet, so they are not reported as statistics here.

Labor and the District as a pair

Agency 1601, labeled Department of Labor, plus DC place of performance, sums to $3,831,810,801.22 on 1,491 awards. Employment and training grants, enforcement support, and administrative awards can all sit in a Labor table; the facts do not split those missions. This page does not allocate the $3.83 billion among ETA, OSHA, or other components.

The join is not an unemployment rate, not a wage ranking, and not a count of District workers.

One thousand four hundred ninety-one District Labor 1601 awards totaling $3,831,810,801.22 are not an unemployment-insurance ledger unless the overlay’s records say so — and this packet does not. Training, enforcement support, and administration can share the cell. Component shares are unpublished. $3,831,810,801.22 is the unsplit pair.
