Department of State (019) federal obligations in Connecticut

State Department 019 awards tagged to Connecticut

Department of State as awarding agency, Connecticut as place-of-performance: 726 records summing to $57,804,814.22. A Department of State award coded outside CT is out. An award in Connecticut from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Connecticut (CT) excludes New York, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. A New York-coded award is NY even if a vendor sits in Fairfield County. Awarding agency 019 is the published State key. Keep 019 in the citation so this cell is not mixed with another Connecticut State slug.

Seven hundred twenty-six records against $57,804,814.22 is a mid-count State Department file on awarding-agency 019, thicker than Massachusetts’s 179-row 019 cell and still not unique contractors. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 726 as 726 unique posts, named missions, or unique contractors. The overlay Department of State in Connecticut is the both-keys table. Connecticut federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of State is the agency book without a CT filter. All spending ties lists other joins. Agency code 019 is the disambiguator on this duplicate slug. Do not merge it with a different State code in another Connecticut join. Named contractors are unpublished. Correlation is not causation: Connecticut did not cause $57,804,814.22 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 019 × CT only.

Not embassies, named posts, or unique contractors

$57,804,814.22 does not measure unique posts, named missions, or unique contractors. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 019 and a CT place-of-performance tag. Awarding agency 019 is the published State key. Keep 019 in the citation so this cell is not mixed with another Connecticut State slug.

Do not treat 726 awards as a census of unique posts, named missions, or unique contractors. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Connecticut federal spending or Department of State matched $57,804,814.22 and 726, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. New York, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island State Department joins are other pairs, not addends. Keep 019 on $57,804,814.22. A thicker row list than Massachusetts does not rank Connecticut as a larger diplomatic state.

Connecticut statewide, not a New York-commute rollup

Place of performance CT is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Connecticut (CT) excludes New York, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. A New York-coded award is NY even if a vendor sits in Fairfield County. Recipient address can differ from that state tag. Hartford, New Haven, Bridgeport, and the rest of the counties share one CT stamp.

Agency code 019 is the disambiguator on this duplicate slug. Do not merge it with a different State code in another Connecticut join. Named contractors are unpublished. This packet does not split $57,804,814.22 by city, county, or named facility. 726 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. FEC donation tables do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Agency 019 versus any other State code

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $57,804,814.22 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Connecticut confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Connecticut’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 726-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 $57,804,814.22. Keep 019 on $57,804,814.22. A thicker row list than Massachusetts does not rank Connecticut as a larger diplomatic state.

Citing State 019 in Connecticut

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of State (agency 019) obligated $57,804,814.22 on 726 awards coded to Connecticut. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as unique posts, named missions, or unique contractors. The pair is Department of State agency 019 plus Connecticut, not a Hartford contractor ranking.

Prefer Department of State in Connecticut if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Connecticut federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to CT. Department of State is the 019 parent without the CT filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $57,804,814.22. A usable footnote names Department of State, Connecticut, $57,804,814.22, and 726. The compact headline $57.8 million is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $79,621 is $57,804,814.22 divided by 726. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
