USAspending caveat. Figures are obligations reported by federal agencies to USAspending.gov, not payments. In USAspending's words: "An outlay occurs when federal money is actually paid out, not just promised to be paid ('obligated')." "Every agency has a Senior Accountable Official who must officially certify that the quarterly financial data submitted by their agency is accurate and complete." "If there are any discrepancies in procurement data, FPDS is the authoritative source." Contract data for the Department of Defense and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is published with a 90-day delay. Data loaded 30 Sep 2026; agencies keep reporting into recent months.

65 new federal awards of $1.0M or more were recorded with a primary place of performance in Louisiana in May 2026, worth $383M in total award value: $124M in contracts, $258M in grants.

That is about the same as the state's median month over the last two years (62 awards) and 1.4% of the 4,551 such awards recorded nationwide that month.

The most active awarding agencies were Department of Transportation (30 awards), Department of Agriculture (5 awards) and Department of Defense (19 awards).
