DATA INTEGRITY STATEMENT
Source Data: FY2025 spending categories use USASpending File B gross outlays (function → account → TAS → program activity → object class). Receipts remain Treasury MTS Table 9. Budget authority remains USASpending reporting period 12.
Scope: File B gross outlays are not Treasury MTS net cash outlays and should not be mixed with them. Open a budget function to see the full File B tree.
About the federal spending data on this page
The federal view opens on the Monthly Treasury Statement: what the government took in, what it paid out, and the gap between the two. Receipts are broken out by source — individual income tax, payroll contributions, corporate tax and customs — and outlays by the agency that spent them.
Alongside it sits the award data from USAspending, which shows where money left the government: which agencies obligated the most, and which contractors, states and institutions received it. The two answer different questions, so both are kept on the page rather than merged into a single total.
Figures on this page are shown for FY2025. ImpactLine does not add its own estimates or fill in values a government has not published — read the methodology and sources for how each figure is assembled.
