Federal money in and out, fiscal 2025

Limitations and reproducibility

Reproducible: Every value comes from MTS Table 9 for record date 2025-09-30 (fiscal-year-to-date column), via the Treasury Fiscal Data API. The groupings are listed in each field's derivation; summing the published lines in those groups reproduces each row to the nearest $0.1 billion.

• Outlays are net outlays by budget function, as Treasury reports them: offsetting receipts (such as Medicare premiums) are already subtracted, and 'Everything else' includes the negative 'Undistributed offsetting receipts' line (-$150.2 billion) and Commerce and Housing Credit (-$28.6 billion).
• 'Borrowing (the deficit)' is total outlays minus total receipts. Treasury covers the deficit mainly by borrowing from the public; the actual change in debt also reflects cash-balance and other financing changes, so it differs from the deficit.
• 'Medicaid and other health' is the Health budget function (550), which is mostly Medicaid but also includes ACA subsidies, NIH and other health programs.
• Figures are from the September 2025 Monthly Treasury Statement and can be revised slightly in the final year-end report.
