How these numbers work

FY2025 actual outlays from OMB’s FY2027 Public Budget Database. Published thousands of dollars are multiplied by 1,000. Records are grouped by agency, bureau and account across budget-status splits. Selected positive-outlay accounts appear once; zero-outlay accounts are omitted, and offsets and other accounts remain in the reconciliation. A running counter applies the historical pace and does not track actual transactions today.

Running amounts apply a constant historical pace: the reported amount divided by every second in FY2025 · October 1, 2024–September 30, 2025, multiplied by elapsed time in the selected range. They illustrate the flow; they do not track actual transactions today. Week starts Monday and YTD starts January 1, in UTC. Dollar increments show motion, not dollar-level measurement accuracy.

“Reported period” restores the original source amounts. This pace model freezes at 2027-01-01 unless a newer official snapshot is imported. These program snapshots have their own reporting periods and coverage, which differ from the national Treasury budget-function counter.

What does energy include?

BEHIND THE NUMBER

The Energy function covers energy supply, conservation, emergency preparedness and energy policy and regulation. Nuclear defense activities belong under National Defense.

  • Energy supply
  • Energy conservation
  • Emergency preparedness
  • Policy and regulation

These topics describe the full budget category. Available breakdowns on this page cover only the programs and reporting periods identified alongside them.

How to read this number

Spending and debt answer different questions. This page shows spending within one federal budget function. The national debt is the accumulated outstanding balance of federal borrowing, not a sum of these category counters.

Source, calculation & original data

Source: U.S. Treasury, Monthly Treasury Statement, Table 9. Retrieved 2026-10-26. Reported total: $20,970,860,009.

Rate = reported amount ÷ 31,536,000 seconds in the reporting period. Estimated ranges apply this historical average to elapsed seconds since midnight today, Monday, the first of the month, or January 1 (UTC). These are modeled totals, not measured weekly, monthly or calendar-year outlays. The reported-period view shows the original published total. Estimates stop 45 days after the reporting period ends. Negative net outlays remain static.

Funds approved by law and actual outlays differ in timing and scope. This page does not claim to show a new congressional appropriation.
