The Department of the Treasury awarded roughly $2.9 billion in direct payments to four states under the State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds program, according to federal awards data recorded on Sept. 6, 2026.[^1][^2][^3][^4]

The largest single award, $1.37 billion, went to the Texas Office of the Governor under award SLFRP4645, with outlays to date matching the full award amount. The figure has held at $1.37 billion across two observed revisions since first recorded.[^1]

New York received $773 million under award SLFRP2611, with outlays to date at $773 million. That amount has moved from $774 million when first observed to $773 million across three revisions, a net decrease of $1 million.[^4]

Missouri received $447 million under award SLFRP4611, with full outlays to date.[^2] Kentucky received $319 million under award SLFRP2620, with outlays to date of $318 million.[^3]

All four awards are classified as direct payments for specified use, a subsidy or other non-reimbursable direct financial aid. The stated purpose for each is to designate financial assistance to support urgent public health efforts.[^1][^2][^3][^4]

The read here is that the awards appear to be disbursements of funds already obligated under the SLFRF program, rather than new obligations, given that outlays match or nearly match the award amounts for three of the four states and the revisions to the Texas and New York awards are small relative to the totals. What stands out is the concentration: Texas and New York together account for about 74% of the $2.9 billion total by this paper's arithmetic.
