Social Security Administration obligations in Washington 3rd District (WA-03)

Reading agency 028 inside WA-03

Awarding agency 028 and congressional district WA-03 meet here. $3,862,937,767 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Social Security Administration’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Washington 3rd District (WA-03), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split OASDI, SSI, or contract versus assistance instruments. 414 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a beneficiary census, a field-office roster, a named-payee file, or a retirement-check register.

This page reports Social Security Administration awarding activity USAspending tagged to this district. The headline $3,862,937,767 sits beside a district-wide obligation total of $5,833,010,039.91; the 66.2% share is arithmetic on those two packet facts, not a ranking of Washington districts as winners or losers. District 90 and 98 placeholders are omitted from this harvest. Obligations are not outlays.

Agency 028 without inventing a component pie

USAspending labels awarding agency 028 as Social Security Administration. That code produced $3,862,937,767 when crossed with Washington 3rd District (WA-03) place of performance. The agency-wide 028 hub does not require WA-03 geography. The district hub does not require SSA. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 414 awards. The packet does not split OASDI, SSI, or contract versus assistance instruments.

Correlation is not causation: Washington 3rd District (WA-03) did not cause $3,862,937,767 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 028 × WA-03 only. It is not a beneficiary census, a field-office roster, a named-payee file, or a retirement-check register. 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.

How Washington 3rd District is coded

Washington 3rd District (WA-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 WA-03 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Washington districts belong on those ties even when the awarding agency is also 028. Washington 3rd District (WA-03) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Washington. Other Washington districts are separate joins even when they reuse awarding-agency 028. Washington 3rd District (WA-03) is a numbered place-of-performance geography, distinct from Washington 5th District. Do not merge those Washington SSA totals.

Washington federal spending shows how agency 028 sits beside other awarding agencies in the same state extract. $3,862,937,767 is one district-agency column, not the state table. This packet does not split Washington 3rd District (WA-03) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different awarding-agency code stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to Social Security Administration. The district-wide obligation total published here is $5,833,010,039.91; $3,862,937,767 is the SSA slice of that denominator.

What the dollar figure is allowed to mean

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $3,862,937,767 is that kind of sum for Social Security Administration inside WA-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 awarding-agency rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $3,862,937,767 as given.

Washington’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 414-row SSA cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 414 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. 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 ($9,330,767.55) is a concentration statistic, not a typical WA-03 SSA payment.

Parents of this tie: district, agency, state

Cite USAspending.gov: Social Security Administration (agency 028) obligated $3,862,937,767 on 414 awards coded to Washington 3rd District (WA-03). Name Social Security Administration and Washington 3rd District (WA-03) together. Keep the obligation word. If Washington 3rd District or Social Security Administration has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a beneficiary census, a field-office roster, a named-payee file, or a retirement-check register. 66.2% of $5,833,010,039.91 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score.

Keep Social Security Administration, Washington 3rd District (WA-03), $3,862,937,767, and 414 awards together. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Social Security Administration is the 028 parent without a WA-03 filter. Washington federal spending is the Washington parent. Do not add those parents to this cell. Sharing a district with SSA does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. This page reports one USAspending join.

Limits of the WA-03 × 028 snapshot

414 awards is a compact-to-moderate SSA file with a high district share. A high share is not a ranking of Washington districts. A large row count makes a program 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 $9,330,767.55) and the district share (66.2% of $5,833,010,039.91) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Washington 3rd District and Social Security Administration if the live tables moved.

Questions

How much SSA spending is coded to Washington 3rd District (WA-03)?

USAspending.gov lists $3,862,937,767 in SSA (agency 028) obligations across 414 awards coded to Washington 3rd District (WA-03). That pair is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Washington’s complete federal ledger. The cell is 66.2% of the district’s published total ($5,833,010,039.91). Unique recipients are unpublished.

Does $3,862,937,767 include every SSA program in WA-03?

The packet does not split OASDI, SSI, or contract versus assistance instruments. $3,862,937,767 is the combined obligation sum for agency 028 inside WA-03 coding.

Is $3,862,937,767 cash already paid in Washington 3rd District (WA-03)?

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.

Prefer the live district and agency hubs if the tables moved.
