Emergency Rental Assistance Program obligations in FY2026

FY2026 as a slice of Emergency Rental Assistance Program

Two tables meet. One table is CFDA 21.023 (Emergency Rental Assistance Program). The other is fiscal year 2026. $564,096,767.42 is the obligation aggregate for rows that carry both keys on the yearlyTrend table. The FY2026 cell is 3.0% of the program-wide $18,989,697,932.33 book on 327 awards. The remaining catalog dollars sit on other fiscal-year rows this page does not reprint. This page is that program–year join, not a tenant census, a named-landlord roster, a rent ranking, or a city housing map. The join does not prove that fiscal year 2026 caused Emergency Rental Assistance Program activity, only that USAspending coded the two keys together. FEC donation tables do not fund these USAspending obligations.

SpendingVault indexes the cell from USAspending.gov. The catalog title on the program side is EMERGENCY RENTAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. The year on the other side is federal fiscal year 2026. Neither label is a contractor, a place of performance, or an awarding-agency code — this packet publishes no awarding agency and no named recipients. Parent without the year: /programs/21.023/ (CFDA 21.023). Parent without the CFDA: /fiscal-years/2026/ (FY2026 federal spending). 29 FY2026 awards make this a sparse large-dollar assistance file, still not a count of households or landlords. Outlays are not this field.

CFDA 21.023 as the Emergency Rental Assistance Program side

CFDA 21.023 is the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance identifier for Emergency Rental Assistance Program. The official title is EMERGENCY RENTAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. The program-wide obligation total in this extract is $18,989,697,932.33 across 327 awards. That figure is a program rollup, not a second headline for the FY2026 cell unless the two amounts match. Do not treat $18,989,697,932.33 as cash Treasury already sent. SpendingVault does not grade program performance. Do not mix Homeowner Assistance Fund (21.026) or SLFRF (21.027) into this 21.023 cell. Mixing those other keys into $564,096,767.42 would invent a combined total the packet never computed.

Open CFDA 21.023 at /programs/21.023/ for the program hub. That page is not this join: it can include other fiscal years if the extract lists them, and it is still obligations rather than outlays. This ties page stays on CFDA 21.023 in FY2026 only. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations. Unique recipients remain unpublished. Later bulk files can move both the dollars and the 29-award count without changing the join keys.

Fiscal year 2026 beside CFDA 21.023

Federal fiscal year 2026 is the time key on this yearlyTrend row. The year hub FY2026 federal spending at /fiscal-years/2026/ rolls up every program that year in the index, not only Emergency Rental Assistance Program. Reading $564,096,767.42 as all FY2026 federal obligations would over-read this cell. The join is one CFDA inside one fiscal year, not a Budget Appendix score and not a Treasury cash statement. Agency splits, place-of-performance maps, and recipient UEIs are omitted from this packet.

How to read the 29-row Emergency Rental Assistance Program file

The extract lists 29 awards on the Emergency Rental Assistance Program × FY2026 table. That is an award-record count for this yearlyTrend cell, not a count of households or landlords. Unique recipients are unpublished. Continuations and modifications can add lines without naming a new organization. Dividing $564,096,767.42 by 29 is not published here as a typical award size, because the packet does not say the rows are comparable. The program-wide award count is 327, a different denominator.

Limits of the Emergency Rental Assistance Program FY2026 cell

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $564,096,767.42 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared on Emergency Rental Assistance Program in FY2026 over-reads the field. Keep $564,096,767.42 labeled as Emergency Rental Assistance Program obligations in fiscal year 2026. No named contractors or households or landlords appear here. Quote Emergency Rental Assistance Program and FY2026 with $564,096,767.42. Keep CFDA 21.023 in the citation.

Budget justifications and press releases are not the source of this cell. If a chart mixes a different CFDA with FY2026 or a different fiscal year with Emergency Rental Assistance Program, the chart has left this join. Do not mix Homeowner Assistance Fund (21.026) or SLFRF (21.027) into this 21.023 cell. Correlation with news headlines is not causation.

Where CFDA 21.023 and FY2026 sit in the index

Open /programs/21.023/ for CFDA 21.023, /fiscal-years/2026/ for FY2026 federal spending, /programs/ for All programs, and /ties/ for All spending ties. Those parents are larger than this cell. Keep both join sides on the same line as $564,096,767.42. USAspending.gov remains the source. A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is CFDA 21.023. The other is fiscal year 2026. $564,096,767.42 is the obligation sum on that intersection, not a forecast and not a claim that Emergency Rental Assistance Program caused any outcome statistic to move.
