How to read this
- From agencies' monthly account reports to Treasury (USAspending): everything an agency spends, including salaries, benefits and interest, not only contracts and grants.
- Outlays are gross: they include payments between government accounts, so they add up to more than the Treasury's official net outlays (about $7.0 trillion in FY2025).
