Department of Labor federal obligations in Rhode Island

USAspending's Department of Labor × Rhode Island aggregate

The relationship is mechanical. USAspending.gov stores an awarding-agency code and a place-of-performance state. This slug keeps rows where those two keys are 1601 and RI. $310,272,745.34 is the obligation sum of that intersection. It is not a verdict on Rhode Island policy and not a nationwide DOL budget.

A modest award list of 121 actions can concentrate dollars in a few instruments or spread them across many modifications. This extract does not say which pattern holds. It publishes $310,272,745.34 and 121 together, without a type split.

Why a modest award list still hides mixed instruments

$2,564,237.56 is a ratio of two packet facts. It is not a median, not a mode, and not a typical workforce or wage-hour award. A later ingest can move $310,272,745.34 or 121; until then, the published pair is fixed. Bay, mill-town, and shoreline folklore does not change the ratio.

Agency 1601 on a different state's overlay is a sibling join, not a remainder that must add to a national DOL budget on this page. Rhode Island's $310,272,745.34 cell stands alone.

Statewide RI, not Providence alone

A RI place-of-performance tag is not a promise that every dollar stayed inside Providence. Work can be planned in Rhode Island and performed partly in Massachusetts or Connecticut. Those neighbor-coded awards are out of this cell.

Bay, mill-town, and shoreline folklore can be a legitimate research question on another page. Here it is labeled folklore because the packet has no county, city, or congressional-district column.

Obligation unit, not outlay unit

Keep the obligation word in every reuse of $310,272,745.34. Rhode Island federal spending and Department of Labor use the same unit on their own filters. Mixing units across hubs produces a false statewide cash story.

If two pages disagree, prefer the overlay table over remembered round numbers. This prose is a reading of one extract, not a second dataset.

Campaign-finance tables stay off this page

Do not claim that donations paid for $310,272,745.34 in Rhode Island. The source is USAspending.gov award aggregates. FEC tables are out of scope for this join.

No contractor roster belongs in this narrative. The facts list state, agency code, agency name, total obligations, and award count. That is the whole numeric set.

How to cite the DOL–Rhode Island pair

Follow Department of Labor in Rhode Island for the overlay, Rhode Island federal spending for statewide context, Department of Labor for the agency without Rhode Island, and All spending ties for sibling joins.

All spending ties is an index of joins, not a hidden total that already includes $310,272,745.34. Department of Labor in Rhode Island remains the place to verify the live rows. 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. Workforce, unemployment-insurance, and wage-hour 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. Bay, mill-town, and shoreline folklore is the same kind of reader path: useful for search, unused as math. Agency 1601 on a different state's overlay is a sibling join, not a remainder that must add to a national DOL budget on this page. Rhode Island's $310,272,745.34 cell stands alone. Do not subtract it from Department of Labor and call the difference 'Rhode Island versus everywhere else' without a published national total in this packet — there is none. Department of Labor is the awarding-agency label stored on the Rhode Island overlay; the numeric key is 1601. Readers who only remember the short name DOL still need both the state tag and the agency tag before quoting $310,272,745.34. The 121 figure is not a count of unique workforce offices or grantees and is not a count of distinct DOL programs. Modifications can add rows without adding new vendors. That is another reason the mean of about $2,564,237.56 is not a typical workforce or wage-hour award. Bay folklore does not split Providence from Warwick or Newport. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. This file copies overlayTarget /states/ri/agencies/1601/ and canonicalPath /ties/department-of-labor-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 $310,272,745.34 or 121, trust the table and treat this prose as dated to the extract. Until then, the reusable facts are $310,272,745.34, 121 awards, agency 1601, Department of Labor, Rhode Island (RI), and the obligation unit.
