Labor on a short NY-15 award list inside a smaller district book
New York 15th District (NY-15) has a comparatively small all-agency obligation book. Labor agency 1601 is a visible slice of that thinner book on only two awards. Two rows are not two job centers and not two named unions. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $26,005,699.12 on 2 awards for awarding agency 1601 with New York 15th District (NY-15) as place of performance. Treat the pair as a table intersection, not a ranking of districts as winners or losers, and not a claim that 2 awards equal 2 workforce programs. A Department of Labor amount tagged to a different district is out of this cell.
HHS, Education, or SSA awards that mention labor in a description sit outside $26,005,699.12 unless those awards also carry agency 1601 and NY-15 geography. Mixing those lines would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and unemployment rates or wage levels is not causation. Those series are not in the packet. Place of performance as NY-15 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $26,005,699.12 in a district treasury. New York 25th and 3rd District pages in this slice are Defense cells, not Labor. Do not mix those DoD joins into NY-15 Labor.
2 Department of Labor awards in New York 15th District
Two Labor awards is the thinnest grain in this slice. A two-row file can still carry tens of millions if the vehicles are large assistance or contract lines. Mean obligation is about $13,002,849.56 if $26,005,699.12 were divided evenly across 2 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a published typical award. Award count is a row count of USAspending awards, including possible modifications. The extract does not split ETA, OSHA, or other DOL components inside agency 1601. Unique recipients are unpublished.
This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open New York 15th District for the stored district table and Department of Labor for the national agency shelf. Do not convert 2 into a map of workers, job centers, or named unions inside New York 15th District. The $26,005,699.12 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on USAspending.gov rather than inferring an inventory.
NY-15 Labor obligations are not wages already paid
Labor obligations are commitments, not wages already paid. Labor awards often obligate as grants or contracts are recorded and draw as invoices or claims arrive. The $26,005,699.12 headline is the obligation sum on this district-agency join, not training already delivered or benefits already issued. Citing the figure as cash already sent confuses two USAspending concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. No fiscal year is attached to this packet; do not annualize $26,005,699.12 into a yearly run rate.
Keep the obligation word on $26,005,699.12. Keep both Department of Labor and New York 15th District (NY-15) in the citation. Campaign contributions recorded on FEC.gov do not fund this USAspending cell. Different datasets can share a state abbreviation without sharing a money trail.
What the New York 15th District Labor table omits
The extract has no roster of workers, job centers, or named unions. Facts remain $26,005,699.12, 2 awards, agency 1601 (Department of Labor), New York 15th District (NY-15), and a district-wide book of $341,068,003.84. This page will not invent a contractor league table. Sibling district-agency joins are separate obligation totals, not a better or worse score.
New York 15th District places NY-15 among other congressional districts. Department of Labor places agency 1601 among other awarding agencies. New York federal spending is the statewide shelf. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of New York spending or of Department of Labor's national book the packet never computed. The $26,005,699.12 figure is the tagged pair only. New York 25th and 3rd District pages in this slice are Defense cells, not Labor. Do not mix those DoD joins into NY-15 Labor.
Citing Department of Labor (agency 1601) in NY-15
A clean footnote names Department of Labor (agency 1601), New York 15th District (NY-15), $26,005,699.12 in obligations, and 2 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not relabel 2 as a census of workers, job centers, or named unions. Quote the district overlay if you need every awarding agency in NY-15, and quote the agency page if you need Department of Labor without a district filter. About 7.6% of the $341,068,003.84 district book sits on this agency in the extract; that percentage is a derived ratio, not a separate published table.
A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is awarding agency 1601. The other is congressional district place of performance as NY-15. The headline $26,005,699.12 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that Department of Labor caused New York 15th District's economy to grow, or that the district caused the awards to exist. If a later ingest moves the live overlay, prefer the overlay when the table and this snapshot diverge.
