Maine USAspending obligations in FY2024

Maine overlapping FY2024 on one table

This page is a join: Maine (ME) and FY2024. $55,219,619,258.15 is the obligation sum on that pair. It is not the government-wide FY2024 total on FY2024 federal spending, not every state's book on All states, and not cash already paid. FY2024 is a closed fiscal year in the yearlyTrend series used here; later ingests can still restate $55,219,619,258.15. Correlation is not causation: a large FY2024 cell does not prove Maine caused a policy outcome, or the reverse.

FY2024 yearlyTrend is that fiscal year's obligation sum for Maine. A different year for the same geography is a separate overlay. Maine federal spending is the state parent without a year filter. FY2024 federal spending is the fiscal-year parent without this state filter. All spending ties lists other pairs. Campaign-finance tables are a different dataset; donations do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Keep both keys visible when citing $55,219,619,258.15: Maine and FY2024. Do not convert the cell into a contractor roster, a lobster-industry census, or a mill-town map. Packet facts stop at $55,219,619,258.15, $92,331,104,326.12 all-year, 54,072 all-year awards, ME, and 2024.

Maine geography, not a county ledger

Maine is the place-of-performance tag. Awards billed to Portland, Bangor, and Augusta can share the statewide code. Awards coded to New Hampshire stay outside $55,219,619,258.15 even if mail is handled in Portland. Downeast, mill-town, and capital-city folklore is a reader path, not a dollar field.

Maine federal spending collects every fiscal year tagged to Maine. Only this intersection is supposed to match $55,219,619,258.15. The join does not name contractors, agencies, or programs. A ranking of maine counties or shipyards would be a different table.

FY2024 as Maine's yearlyTrend year key

Fiscal year 2024 is the yearlyTrend year key. It is not a calendar year and not a count of events in Maine. Awards that carry a different year sit outside this cell even if the geography is still ME. FY2024 obligations of $55,219,619,258.15 are about 59.8% of Maine's $92,331,104,326.12 all-year obligation total in this extract. Do not treat the all-year $92,331,104,326.12 as if it were the FY2024 headline.

FY2024 federal spending shows how Maine sits beside other geographies in the same fiscal year. This packet has no outlay total, no recipient roster, and no CFDA split. All states is the directory of states.

The all-year Maine award count is a different field

The extract lists 54,072 awards on the Maine table. That is a state-level award-record count, not a FY2024-only census published on this packet. Dividing $55,219,619,258.15 by 54,072 would mix a year cell with an all-year row count, so this page does not treat that quotient as a typical FY2024 invoice. Unique vendors are unpublished.

Modifications can add rows without adding new vendors. That is another reason 54,072 is not a contractor census. If a later ingest restates the all-year count, trust the live Maine federal spending table. This page quotes the packet facts only.

What the Maine–FY2024 pair does not prove

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $55,219,619,258.15 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared in FY2024 over-reads the field. The join cannot say that FY2024 specialized in Maine's economy because of federal demand. Keep $55,219,619,258.15 labeled as Maine obligations in FY2024. It is not a ranking of Maine counties or shipyards.

FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation. Do not rank Maine as a winner or loser against unlabeled neighbor cells. Cite Maine together with FY2024 whenever you reuse $55,219,619,258.15.

Using the Maine FY2024 hubs

Open Maine federal spending for the state rollup, FY2024 federal spending for the fiscal-year rollup, All states for other states, and All spending ties for other pairs. None of those links convert this cell into a contractor roster, a lobster-industry census, or a mill-town map, into outlays this packet omits, or into a contractor list. Cite both sides: Maine and FY2024, $55,219,619,258.15, USAspending.gov, obligations only.

This page exists because two tables meet: a place-of-performance state and a fiscal year. It does not exist to argue that Maine won or lost federal money, that donations paid for the awards, or that obligations equal cash. Maine's FY2025 and FY2026 yearlyTrend rows in this harvest are other joins. Do not stack those cells onto $55,219,619,258.15. Portland folklore is ordinary speech. New Hampshire-coded awards stay outside the ME tag even if a vendor mails from Portland. Unique recipients stay unpublished.
