Social Security Retirement Insurance in Pennsylvania 8th District (PA-08)

One hundred sixty-eight 96.002 awards inside Pennsylvania 8th (PA-08)

CFDA 96.002 and congressional district PA-08 meet here. $3,406,976,207 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Social Security Retirement Insurance's nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Pennsylvania 8th District (PA-08), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split retired-worker from spouse or survivor benefits and does not publish a beneficiary denominator. 168 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a beneficiary census, a field-office roster, or a named-payee file.

This page reports SSA Retirement awards USAspending tagged to this district as place of performance. The headline $3,406,976,207 sits beside a district-wide obligation total of $10,607,796,907.86; the 32.1% share is arithmetic on those two packet facts, not a ranking of Pennsylvania districts as winners or losers. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Obligations are not outlays. Pennsylvania 10th District hosts Title I (84.010) and BEAD (11.035) program joins in this harvest. Those are different CFDAs. Do not add PA-10 education or broadband dollars into PA-08 96.002.

Social Security Retirement Insurance as a CFDA rollup, not a check register

CFDA 96.002 is Social Security Retirement Insurance. The program tag does not name field offices or payees. This packet lists none of them. That catalog produced $3,406,976,207 when crossed with Pennsylvania 8th District (PA-08) place of performance. The program-wide 96.002 hub does not require PA-08 geography. The district hub does not require SSA Retirement. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 168 awards. The packet does not split retired-worker from spouse or survivor benefits and does not publish a beneficiary denominator.

Correlation is not causation: Pennsylvania 8th District (PA-08) did not cause $3,406,976,207 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 96.002 × PA-08 only. This cell is not a beneficiary census, a field-office roster, or a named-payee 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. One hundred sixty-eight records against this dollar book is a mid-size retirement-insurance file with a higher implied mean than TN-01's thicker extract.

Pennsylvania 8th District (PA-08) as 96.002 geography

Pennsylvania 8th District (PA-08) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Pennsylvania. Other Pennsylvania districts are separate joins even when they reuse CFDA 96.002. Pennsylvania 8th District (PA-08) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list PA-08 while later work occurs elsewhere. Pennsylvania federal spending (/states/pa/) shows how CFDA 96.002 sits beside other program codes in the same state extract. $3,406,976,207 is one district-program column, not the state table. This packet does not split Pennsylvania 8th District (PA-08) by county, city, or census tract.

The district-wide obligation total published here is $10,607,796,907.86; $3,406,976,207 is the SSA Retirement slice of that denominator. Open Pennsylvania 8th District (/districts/PA-08/) for the stored district table and CFDA 96.002 (/programs/96.002/) for the national program shelf. Payee names are unpublished. One hundred sixty-eight awards are not one hundred sixty-eight northeastern-Pennsylvania retirees.

PA-08 retirement dollars are commitments, not cashed coupons

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $3,406,976,207 is that kind of sum for Social Security Retirement Insurance inside PA-08 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. Treating $3,406,976,207 as monthly benefits already issued confuses those terms. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $3,406,976,207 as given.

Pennsylvania's own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 168-row SSA Retirement cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 168 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. 168 is not a census of beneficiaries, field offices, or named payees. 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 ($20,279,620.28) is a concentration statistic, not a typical PA-08 SSA Retirement payment.

Keep Social Security Retirement Insurance, Pennsylvania 8th District (PA-08), $3,406,976,207, and 168 awards together. Confusing this join with a statewide SSA Retirement total or the PA-10 Title I overlay would be a different overlay. Sharing a district with SSA Retirement does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. 32.1% of $10,607,796,907.86 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score. This page reports one USAspending join.
