What agency 019 × VA-06 is not

This packet has no outlay total and no fiscal-year split. Citing the figure as cash already spent in Virginia 6th District (VA-06) over-reads the field. Do not rank Virginia 6th District (VA-06) as a winner or loser versus other districts. Keep both sides in the citation: Department of State and Virginia 6th District (VA-06).
