Michigan 8th District

Reading the 96.004 × MI-08 cell

CFDA 96.004 and congressional district MI-08 meet here. $364,382,931 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Social Security Survivors Insurance’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Michigan 8th District (MI-08), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split widow from child survivor categories and does not publish a beneficiary denominator. 141 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a survivor census, a claims roster, or a named-beneficiary file.

This page reports a Social Security Survivors Insurance (CFDA 96.004) catalog line, not a checks-paid register. The headline $364,382,931 sits beside a district-wide obligation total of $5,994,799,132.69; the 6.1% share is arithmetic on those two packet facts, not a ranking of Michigan districts as winners or losers. District 90 and 98 placeholders are omitted from this harvest. Obligations are not outlays. Ohio 14th also hosts CFDA 96.004 with a similar share on a different geography. Those keys are not addends to this MI-08 cell.

Program 96.004 without a recipient pie

USAspending labels CFDA 96.004 as Social Security Survivors Insurance. That catalog number produced $364,382,931 when crossed with Michigan 8th District (MI-08) place of performance. The program-wide 96.004 hub does not require MI-08 geography. The district hub does not require SSA survivors. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 141 awards. The packet does not split widow from child survivor categories and does not publish a beneficiary denominator.

Correlation is not causation: Michigan 8th District (MI-08) did not “cause” $364,382,931 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 96.004 × MI-08 only. It is not a survivor census, a claims roster, or a named-beneficiary 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.

Questions

USAspending.gov lists $364,382,931 in Social Security Survivors Insurance obligations across 141 awards with place of performance in Michigan 8th District (MI-08). CFDA 96.004 × MI-08 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Michigan’s complete federal ledger. The cell is 6.1% of the district’s published total ($5,994,799,132.69). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $2,584,276.11, a ratio of those two facts only.

Does $364,382,931 include every SSA survivors project in MI-08?

The packet does not split widow from child survivor categories and does not publish a beneficiary denominator. $364,382,931 is the combined obligation sum for CFDA 96.004 inside MI-08 coding. This page will not invent a project pie or name contractors. Open CFDA 96.004 and Michigan 8th District to inspect parent tables. 141 remains an action count, not a count of beneficiaries, claims, or SSA offices.

Is $364,382,931 cash already paid in Michigan 8th District (MI-08)?

No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet’s headline. Treating $364,382,931 as checks already cleared in Michigan 8th District (MI-08) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 141 awards. Prefer the live district and program hubs if the tables moved.

Do FEC donations fund these SSA survivors awards in MI-08?

No. FEC receipts and USAspending obligations are different datasets. Sharing Michigan geography does not mean donations funded $364,382,931 in Michigan 8th District (MI-08). This page reports USAspending.gov CFDA 96.004 crossed with place of performance MI-08. It does not report campaign finance.
