The table shows overall
government spending—federal spending, state spending, and local
spending—in the United States of America for all levels of government
for the specified fiscal year. Spending totals are aggregated for each
major government function.
Federal spending for 1962
through 2012 is based on federal subfunction data in the president’s
budget. State and local spending for 1992 through 2012 is derived from
ITE codes in the Census
Bureau’s census of state and local government finances.
State and local spending
between 1971 and 1991 is obtained from Statistical
Abstract of the United States.
Federal spending prior to
1962 and state and local spending prior to 1971 is obtained from Bicentennial
Edition: Historical Statistics of the United States, Colonial Times to
1970.
You can use controls on the
table to change the year or to drill down to view more detailed spending
information. You can also view the spending data as percent of Gross
Domestic Product (GDP).
