A thin Labor file on Washington

Department of Labor as awarding agency, Washington as place-of-performance: 199 records summing to $1,555,656,019.37. A Department of Labor award coded outside WA is out. An award in Washington from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Washington (WA) excludes Oregon, Idaho, and the District of Columbia. An Oregon-coded Labor award is not this cell. This is the state of Washington, not Washington, D.C.

One hundred ninety-nine awards against $1,555,656,019.37 is a thin, high-mean Labor file, slightly thinner than North Carolina’s 221-row Labor cell. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 199 as 199 unique unique workers, UI claims, or job-training seats. Department of Labor in Washington is the both-keys table. Washington federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Labor is the agency book without a WA filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Seattle-versus-Spokane folklore is unpublished. Do not treat WA as the District of Columbia. Agency 1601 × WA is the pair. Correlation is not causation: Washington did not cause $1,555,656,019.37 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 1601 × WA only. Campaign contributions do not fund these USAspending awards.

199 rows are not 199 unique workers

$1,555,656,019.37 does not measure unique workers, UI claims, or job-training seats. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 1601 and a WA place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 199 awards as a census of unique workers, UI claims, or job-training seats. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Washington federal spending or Department of Labor matched $1,555,656,019.37 and 199, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Oregon and Idaho Labor joins are other pairs, not addends.

Washington state, not a Cascadia rollup

Place of performance WA is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Washington (WA) excludes Oregon, Idaho, and the District of Columbia. An Oregon-coded Labor award is not this cell. This is the state of Washington, not Washington, D.C. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

Seattle-versus-Spokane folklore is unpublished. Do not treat WA as the District of Columbia. Agency 1601 × WA is the pair. This packet does not split $1,555,656,019.37 by city, county, or named facility. 199 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

High-mean vehicles still record obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $1,555,656,019.37 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Washington confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Washington’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 199-award USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $1,555,656,019.37. The compact headline $1.56 billion is that same dollar total rounded, not a second extract.

Citing Labor in Washington

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Labor (agency 1601) obligated $1,555,656,019.37 on 199 awards coded to Washington. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as unique workers, UI claims, or job-training seats.

Prefer Department of Labor in Washington if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Washington federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to WA. Department of Labor is the 1601 parent without the WA filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $1,555,656,019.37. The implied mean near $7.82 million is $1,555,656,019.37 divided by 199. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
