Federal Budget Authority Starting 1976

On March 24, 2013, in a joint project between usgovernmentspending.com and usfederalbudget.us, we finished loading federal Budget Authority data.

You can now view Budget Authority data for each federal budget starting with the FY 1986 budget and up to the latest published federal budget.

In the Estimated Budget Authority view you can look at the six years of budget authority projections down to the subfunction level in each federal budget.  You can also drill down to "account-level" budget authority data.

In the Budget Authority vs. Actual view you can look at the budget authority down to the subfunction level for a particular fiscal year as shown in different budgets and compared to the final budget authority data published after the completion of the fiscal year.  You can also drill down to "account-level" budget authority data.

Data Sources
Budget Authority data down to the subfunction level was obtained from Table 5.1 -- Budget Authority by Function and Subfunction, which is published in every federal budget in the Historical Tables starting with the FY 1986 federal budget.

Budget Authority data at the account level was obtained from the Budget Authority file which is published in every federal budget in the Public Budget Database starting with the FY 1999 federal budget.
