Federal Spending Report — 2026-05-30
Federal Spending Report: May 30, 2026
The Department of Agriculture distributed $248,000 across five grants on May 30, 2026, with the bulk of funding flowing to a single Oregon-based community organization. The single-day spending activity involved two unique contractors operating across four states.
Community Action Team Incorporated of Columbia County, Oregon, captured 80 percent of the day's obligations with a $200,000 grant, making it the dominant recipient. The remaining four awards, each under $15,000, were distributed to organizations in Texas, Virginia, and New Mexico, though their identities were redacted from public records due to personally identifiable information restrictions.
The distribution pattern reveals significant concentration risk. One named contractor received four times more funding than all other recipients combined, while a second contractor—identified only as "REDACTED DUE TO PII"—gathered the remaining $48,000 across four separate awards. This two-contractor model accounted for the entirety of May 30th spending.
All five awards came through the Department of Agriculture's grant program, indicating a coordinated effort across a single federal agency on this date. The geographic spread spanned the Pacific Northwest, Southwest, and Mid-Atlantic regions, with Oregon claiming the lion's share at $200,000, followed by Texas at $24,000 split between two awards. Virginia and New Mexico each received single grants of $13,000 and $12,000, respectively.
The redaction of four awardees' names suggests they may be individual beneficiaries or small entities subject to privacy protections, a common practice in Agriculture Department community development grants. Only the Oregon organization achieved sufficient size or public profile to be named in the report.
The May 30 spending activity represents routine agricultural grant distribution rather than emergency appropriations or supplemental spending. All awards took the form of grants—the most common vehicle for Agriculture Department community and rural development programs—with no contracts, loans, or other obligation types present in this day's activity.
