NEW ERA rural program in Wisconsin 3rd District (WI-03)
The NEW ERA × WI-03 cell on USAspending.gov is $471,007,955 in obligations across 2 awards. Two New Empowering Rural America (NEW ERA) awards equal about 4.9% of WI-03’s $9.57 billion district book — a two-row USDA rural-energy cell, not a cooperative census. That pair is New Empowering Rural America (New Era) Program and Wisconsin 3rd District (WI-03) — not Wisconsin’s entire federal inflow, not New Empowering Rural America (New Era) Program nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 4.9% of this district’s published obligation total ($9,571,919,025.57). Implied average obligation is about $235,503,977.50 ($471,007,955 ÷ 2). Correlation is not causation.

A place-of-performance join: NEW ERA × WI-03
CFDA 10.758 and congressional district WI-03 meet here. $471,007,955 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not New Empowering Rural America (New Era) Program’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Wisconsin 3rd District (WI-03), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split generation from transmission uses and does not name rural electric cooperatives. 2 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a rural-utility roster, a generation-site map, or a named-borrower file.
Dividing $471,007,955 by 2 yields about $235,503,977.50 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical loan or grant size or a posted per-cooperative figure. 2 awards against a $471.01 million NEW ERA cell is extreme concentration. Do not invent two named cooperatives or generation sites. Do not treat WI-03’s 10.758 cell as a synonym for every NEW ERA account nationwide. Open Wisconsin 3rd District for the district table without this program filter, CFDA 10.758 for CFDA 10.758 without the WI-03 filter, Wisconsin federal spending for every program in the Wisconsin extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $471,007,955.
New Empowering Rural America (New Era) Program as a CFDA tag, not as a named-vendor list
USAspending labels CFDA 10.758 as New Empowering Rural America (New Era) Program. That catalog number produced $471,007,955 when crossed with Wisconsin 3rd District (WI-03) place of performance. The program-wide 10.758 hub does not require WI-03 geography. The district hub does not require NEW ERA. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 2 awards. The packet does not split generation from transmission uses and does not name rural electric cooperatives.
Correlation is not causation: Wisconsin 3rd District (WI-03) did not “cause” $471,007,955 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 10.758 × WI-03 only. It is not a rural-utility roster, a generation-site map, or a named-borrower 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.
Place of performance for Wisconsin 3rd District (WI-03)
Wisconsin 3rd District (WI-03) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list WI-03 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Wisconsin districts belong on those ties even when the CFDA is also 10.758. Wisconsin 3rd District (WI-03) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Wisconsin. Other Wisconsin districts are separate joins even when they reuse CFDA 10.758. Wisconsin 3rd District (WI-03) is not Wisconsin 6th. The Medicare SMI pair on WI-06 uses CFDA 93.774, not 10.758.
Obligation math for this join
USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $471,007,955 is that kind of sum for New Empowering Rural America (New Era) Program inside WI-03 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 CFDA rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $471,007,955 as given.
Wisconsin’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 2-row NEW ERA cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 2 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. 2 is not a count of cooperatives, megawatts, or projects. 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 ($235,503,977.50) is a concentration statistic, not a typical loan or grant size or a posted per-cooperative figure.
What a complete citation includes
Cite USAspending.gov: New Empowering Rural America (New Era) Program (CFDA 10.758) obligated $471,007,955 on 2 awards coded to Wisconsin 3rd District (WI-03). Name New Empowering Rural America (New Era) Program and Wisconsin 3rd District (WI-03) together. Keep the obligation word. If Wisconsin 3rd District or CFDA 10.758 has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a rural-utility roster, a generation-site map, or a named-borrower file. 4.9% of $9,571,919,025.57 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score. Crop insurance on Ohio 1st is CFDA 10.450, a different USDA catalog. Do not fold those USDA lines into this NEW ERA join.
Using 4.9% and $235,503,977.50 without overclaiming
2 awards against a $471.01 million NEW ERA cell is extreme concentration. Do not invent two named cooperatives or generation sites. A large row count makes a project 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 $235,503,977.50) and the district share (4.9% of $9,571,919,025.57) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Wisconsin 3rd District and CFDA 10.758 if the live tables moved.
Do not rank Wisconsin 3rd District (WI-03) as more NEW ERA-dependent than neighboring districts on the strength of this cell alone. Neighboring geographies have their own 10.758 ties with different dollar totals, or no published 10.758 cell in this harvest. This snapshot holds $471,007,955 and 2 only. All spending ties is the index, not an addend. Obligations are not outlays. Correlation is not causation.
