How to read this
- Maryland state government payments (money paid out; source: Maryland Department of Budget and Management (State of Maryland Payments Data)), not federal obligations. They include federal grant money the state spends, so don't add them to federal totals.
- Maryland fiscal years run July to June (FY2027 started July 2026).
- Maryland publishes one total per agency, payee and fiscal year (no months or dates) and doesn't include state employee payroll.
