Agency 028 overlapping Maine 1st District (ME-01)
This page is a join: Social Security Administration and Maine 1st District (ME-01). $3,656,293,866.88 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Maine’s statewide Social Security Administration book, not the nationwide Social Security Administration total, and not an outlay register. Maine 1st District is the district parent without this agency filter. Social Security Administration is the agency parent without the ME-01 filter. Correlation is not causation.
315 is an award-action count. Modifications, delivery orders, and repeat vehicles add rows. Unique vendors are unpublished. Dividing $3,656,293,866.88 by 315 yields about $11,607,282.12 per award, a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical invoice and not a jobs figure. Campaign-finance tables are a different dataset; donations do not fund these USAspending obligations.
Social Security Administration without the ME-02 mix-in
The agency side is Social Security Administration, code 028. A compact 315-row file makes a named-facility story tempting; the packet still does not name facilities or contractors. Maine 2nd District (ME-02) SSA is a separate overlay with its own award count. Packet facts on the agency side are the name Social Security Administration, code 028, and the join dollars $3,656,293,866.88. Confusing this join with Maine 2nd District SSA totals or Maine’s statewide all-agency book would be a different overlay.
Social Security Administration drops the district filter. Other districts with Social Security Administration awards are other ties. This page quotes only Maine 1st District (ME-01). ME-01’s district-wide obligation total includes many agencies besides SSA. Subtracting is tempting; this page still does not publish the leftover agency list. Cite Social Security Administration in Maine 1st District (ME-01) only.
Maine 1st District (ME-01) as southern-Maine geography coding
