Government Accountability Office federal obligations in FY2025

GAO agency 005 meeting fiscal year 2025

This page is a join: Government Accountability Office (agency 005) and FY2025. $213,049,962.43 is the obligation sum on that pair. It is not the government-wide FY2025 total on FY2025 federal spending, not every agency’s book on All agencies, and not cash already paid. FY2025 figures can be incomplete for a current or recent year, as the source note states. Correlation is not causation: a large FY2025 cell does not prove the agency caused a policy outcome, or the reverse.

FY2025 yearlyTrend amounts may still move. A smaller FY2025 obligation cell than FY2024 is not proof that oversight stopped. It is a different year filter. Government Accountability Office is the agency parent without a year filter. FY2025 federal spending is the fiscal-year parent without this agency filter. All spending ties lists other pairs. Campaign-finance tables are a different dataset; donations do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Government Accountability Office still the awarding tag

Agency 005 remains the Government Accountability Office. FY2025 does not add report titles. Reviewed agencies stay unnamed. Confusing this join with the FY2024 GAO overlay treated as identical would be a different table. Packet facts on the agency side are the name Government Accountability Office, code 005, all-year obligations $765,932,457.62, and 942 awards. Any other recipient, program mix, or contractor list would be invented.

Readers sometimes treat an awarding-agency total as a budget Congress passed for a named activity. $213,049,962.43 is not that. It is the USAspending obligation rollup tagged to Government Accountability Office in FY2025. Do not sum GAO fiscal years on this page. Recommendation tallies remain unpublished. Keep both sides: Government Accountability Office and FY2025.

FY2025 as a later legislative-branch year cell

Fiscal year 2025 is the yearlyTrend year key. It is not a calendar year and not a count of events the agency oversees. Awards that carry a different year sit outside this cell even if the awarding agency is still 005. FY2025 obligations of $213,049,962.43 are about 27.8% of the agency’s $765,932,457.62 all-year obligation total in this extract. Do not treat the all-year $765,932,457.62 as if it were the FY2025 headline.

FY2025 federal spending shows how Government Accountability Office sits beside other awarding agencies in the same fiscal year. This packet has no outlay total, no recipient roster, and no NAICS split. All agencies is the directory of awarding agencies.

FY2025 share of the same GAO all-year total

The extract lists 942 awards on the Government Accountability Office table. That is an agency-level award-record count, not a FY2025-only census published on this packet. Dividing $213,049,962.43 by 942 would mix a year cell with an all-year row count, so this page does not treat that quotient as a typical FY2025 invoice. Unique vendors are unpublished.

What a smaller FY2025 GAO cell does not mean

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $213,049,962.43 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared in FY2025 over-reads the field. The join cannot say that FY2025 specialized in the agency’s mission because of federal demand. Keep $213,049,962.43 labeled as Government Accountability Office obligations in FY2025. It is not a 2025 audit-product ranking or a hearing calendar.

Open Government Accountability Office for the agency rollup, FY2025 federal spending for the fiscal-year rollup, All agencies for other awarding agencies, and All spending ties for other pairs. None of those links convert this cell into the FY2024 GAO overlay treated as identical, into outlays this packet omits, or into a contractor list. Cite both sides: Government Accountability Office and FY2025, $213,049,962.43, USAspending.gov, obligations only.

Do not sum GAO fiscal years on this page. Recommendation tallies remain unpublished. Keep both sides: Government Accountability Office and FY2025. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved after a later USAspending ingest.
