The function groups sum exactly to Census aggregate SF0133 before rounding. Some categories include transfers to local governments; they are not all payments to contractors.
Other reported expenditure measures
SF0132 equals general expenditures plus utilities and liquor stores. Insurance-trust expenditure is separately reported and excluded from both SF0132 and the general-expenditure headline. These measures are displayed to explain coverage; they are not an enacted all-funds budget.

How much did Wyoming state government spend?
The Census FY2024 general-expenditure measure is $6,409,768,000. This excludes utilities, liquor stores and insurance-trust expenditures; the separate measures above show those coverage differences.
Is this the latest enacted budget?
No. This is the latest fiscal year in the retrieved Census state-finance bulk release: FY2024. An enacted budget authorizes spending and requires a separate official state budget source.
Does a large spending category prove fraud?
No. These are accounting records, not audit findings, recipient payment records or evidence of misconduct. Check a specific claim against an audit, contract, payment or documented outcome.
Can I compare two states directly?
You can compare the same Census measure and year, but total dollars do not adjust for population, prices or which level of government provides a service. Transfers and local spending need careful treatment.
