Mississippi federal obligations next to FEC fundraising

MS joins two tables; it does not fund one from the other

SpendingVault holds $154,631,141,306 in Mississippi obligations. LobbyVault holds $19.2 million in Mississippi candidate receipts. Shipbuilding, disaster, and agricultural-award folklore may send a reader to both hubs. Those stories are not a mapping from a contribution to an award ID. The join key is MS, shared by 362,644 award actions and 476 committees.

$154.6 billion in commitments is not a restatement of $19.2 million in receipts. Obligations are agency promises. Receipts are campaign bookings. Adding them invents a Mississippi federal-money headline no agency published.

Mississippi federal spending, Mississippi FEC totals, and All spending ties are the three doors. None converts donations into spending.

362,644 award actions as a volume statistic

362,644 is a record count. Assistance actions and modifications add rows. It is not a unique-recipient roster. $154,631,141,306 is the matching commitment sum. Mean dollars per action are about $426,399 if you divide those two facts — a calculator output, not a typical shipyard contract.

Place of performance tagged to Mississippi can include work that later moves. Outlays can lag. This page does not contain an outlay total. Cite obligations when you quote {n['obl']}. Agency names live on Mississippi federal spending, not inside the FEC roster.

Republican-majority receipts on 476 committees

Republican committees reported $13.9 million (72.3% of $19.2 million). Democratic committees reported $5.1 million (26.8%). Other filers reported $175,191 (0.9%). 476 federal candidate committees tagged to Mississippi sit behind those lines, including residual filers. A 72.3% receipt share is not a share of 362,644 awards.

Party codes travel with candidate committees. USAspending rows here have no Republican flag. State races file with Mississippi’s state system and sit outside the FEC total. Do not paint obligation dollars with FEC colors.

Coast versus Delta is not a packet geography

This packet does not split $154,631,141,306 or $19.2 million between the Gulf Coast and the Delta. 362,644 awards and 476 committees are statewide. A regional cut would be a different extract. Independent expenditures about Mississippi candidates can be paid from elsewhere and sit in neither total.

Do not divide $154,631,141,306 by $19.2 million and call the result a return on donations. The units are unlike. Population, contractor density, and federal program mix move the spending ledger without touching a campaign account. Correlation is not causation.

Mississippi citation block

USAspending.gov: $154,631,141,306; 362,644 awards. FEC.gov: $19.2 million; 476 committees; Republican $13.9 million; Democratic $5.1 million; other $175,191. Two sentences. Campaign contributions are not federal awards. 476 is a filing count, not a November ballot census. 362,644 is an action count, not unique vendors. Coast-versus-Delta splits are not in this packet. State-office campaigns file under Mississippi law and sit outside the FEC extract. Local procurement paid without a federal award sits outside the obligation total.

Shipyard headlines are not packet fields

Gulf shipbuilding and disaster-recovery stories are why some readers open Mississippi’s pair. They are not NAICS codes in this packet and they do not map a contribution to an award ID. The facts remain $154,631,141,306, 362,644 awards, $19.2 million, and 476 committees.

A later ingest can restate the obligation total without touching receipts, and a later FEC file can restate receipts without touching awards. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Mississippi federal spending and Mississippi FEC totals are the live tables. All spending ties does not publish a blended Mississippi federal-money figure. Do not rank Mississippi as more connected because a large award-action count sits beside a smaller receipt book. Influence is not a field in this packet. Shipyard names belong on Mississippi federal spending if they appear as recipients; they do not belong on the FEC sentence. A high award-action count is still a row count, including modifications, not a unique-vendor census. State-office campaigns remain under Mississippi law and sit outside the FEC extract even when a federal headline mentions the same surnames.
