GSA federal obligations in Michigan 13th District (MI-13)

USAspending.gov tags $421,809,089.84 to General Services Administration inside Michigan 13th District (MI-13) — 3,308 award records, not outlays. Three thousand three hundred eight GSA-coded awards cover about ten percent of MI-13's district obligation total, a Michigan GSA geography that is not a copy of another Michigan GSA pair. That pair is General Services Administration and Michigan 13th District (MI-13) — not Michigan's entire federal inflow, not General Services Administration nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 10.4% of this district's published obligation total ($4,061,179,261.01). Implied average obligation is about $127,511.82 ($421,809,089.84 ÷ 3,308). Correlation is not causation.

GSA obligations coded to Michigan 13th District (MI-13)

Awarding agency 047 and congressional district MI-13 meet here. $421,809,089.84 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not General Services Administration's nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Michigan 13th District (MI-13), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split GSA schedules, leases, or contract versus assistance instruments. 3,308 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a federal building inventory, a lease catalog, or a named-vendor file.

Dividing $421,809,089.84 by 3,308 yields about $127,511.82 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line. 3,308 awards is a thick GSA file. Both this count and a thicker GSA file elsewhere are action counts, not unique vendors. Do not treat MI-13's 047 cell as a synonym for every GSA account nationwide. Open Michigan 13th District for the district table without this agency filter, General Services Administration for agency 047 without a MI-13 filter, Michigan federal spending for every awarding agency in the Michigan extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $421,809,089.84.

What GSA contributes to this pair

USAspending labels awarding agency 047 as General Services Administration. That code produced $421,809,089.84 when crossed with Michigan 13th District (MI-13) place of performance. The agency-wide 047 hub does not require MI-13 geography. The district hub does not require GSA. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 3,308 awards. The packet does not split GSA schedules, leases, or contract versus assistance instruments.

Correlation is not causation: Michigan 13th District (MI-13) did not cause $421,809,089.84 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 047 × MI-13 only. This cell is not a federal building inventory, a lease catalog, or a named-vendor file. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.

District geography versus Michigan statewide totals

Michigan 13th District (MI-13) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list MI-13 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Michigan districts belong on those ties even when the awarding agency is also 047. Michigan 13th District (MI-13) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Michigan. Other Michigan districts are separate joins even when they reuse awarding-agency 047. Michigan 13th District (MI-13) is not other Michigan districts. Same awarding-agency code 047 on a different stamp is a different dollar total and row count.

Michigan federal spending shows how agency 047 sits beside other awarding agencies in the same state extract. $421,809,089.84 is one district-agency column, not the state table. This packet does not split Michigan 13th District (MI-13) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different awarding-agency code stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to General Services Administration. The district-wide obligation total published here is $4,061,179,261.01; $421,809,089.84 is the GSA slice of that denominator.

Why this is not an outlay register

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $421,809,089.84 is that kind of sum for General Services Administration inside MI-13 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. Assistance and contract awards can share the same awarding-agency rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $421,809,089.84 as given.

Michigan's own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 3,308-row GSA cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 3,308 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. Do not annualize without a year field in the packet. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. The implied mean ($127,511.82) is a concentration statistic, not a typical MI-13 GSA payment.

Live tables versus this snapshot

Cite USAspending.gov: General Services Administration (agency 047) obligated $421,809,089.84 on 3,308 awards coded to Michigan 13th District (MI-13). Name General Services Administration and Michigan 13th District (MI-13) together. Keep the obligation word. If Michigan 13th District or General Services Administration has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a federal building inventory, a lease catalog, or a named-vendor file. 10.4% of $4,061,179,261.01 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score.

Keep General Services Administration, Michigan 13th District (MI-13), $421,809,089.84, and 3,308 awards together. All spending ties indexes other pairs. General Services Administration is the 047 parent without a MI-13 filter. Michigan federal spending is the Michigan parent. Do not add those parents to this cell. Sharing a district with GSA does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. This page reports one USAspending join.

What this packet refuses to infer

3,308 awards is a thick GSA file. Both this count and a thicker GSA file elsewhere are action counts, not unique vendors. Another Michigan district can host NSF, not GSA. Agency 049 is not agency 047. Keep the pair as GSA × MI-13. A large row count makes a program split tempting; the packet still does not supply one. A small row count makes a named-facility story tempting; the packet still does not name facilities or contractors. The implied mean (about $127,511.82) and the district share (10.4% of $4,061,179,261.01) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Michigan 13th District and General Services Administration if the live tables moved.

Do not rank Michigan 13th District (MI-13) as more GSA-dependent than neighboring districts on the strength of this cell alone. Neighboring geographies have their own 047 ties with different dollar totals, or no published 047 cell in this harvest. This snapshot holds $421,809,089.84 and 3,308 only. All spending ties is the index, not an addend. Obligations are not outlays. Correlation is not causation.

Questions

How much GSA spending is coded to Michigan 13th District (MI-13)?
USAspending.gov lists $421,809,089.84 in General Services Administration obligations across 3,308 awards with place of performance in Michigan 13th District (MI-13). Agency 047 × MI-13 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Michigan's complete federal ledger. The cell is 10.4% of the district's published total ($4,061,179,261.01). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $127,511.82, a ratio of those two facts only.
Does $421,809,089.84 include every GSA program in MI-13?
The packet publishes one awarding-agency rollup. The packet does not split GSA schedules, leases, or contract versus assistance instruments. $421,809,089.84 is the combined obligation sum for agency 047 inside MI-13 coding. This page will not invent a program pie or name contractors. Open General Services Administration and Michigan 13th District to inspect parent tables. 3,308 remains an action count, not a program count.
Is $421,809,089.84 cash already paid in Michigan 13th District (MI-13)?
No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet's headline. Treating $421,809,089.84 as checks already cleared in Michigan 13th District (MI-13) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 3,308 awards. Prefer the live district and agency hubs if the tables moved.
What share of MI-13 obligations is agency 047?
Agency 047 accounts for 10.4% of $4,061,179,261.01 in district-wide obligations on this packet. That share is $421,809,089.84 ÷ $4,061,179,261.01. It is not a ranking of Michigan districts and not an outlay share. Other awarding agencies occupy the remaining district total on other ties.

USAspending.gov congressional district place-of-performance joined to awarding agency. District 90/98 (multi/non-voting placeholders) are omitted. Obligations are not outlays.
