New Tool Shows How Federal Dollars Are Spent in Indiana
The tool tracks six years of transaction-level federal spending data and breaks it down by department, program, agency and category.
- On Monday, Indiana Comptroller Elise Nieshalla launched the Federal Funding Expenditures Dashboard within the Indiana Transparency Portal, tracking the $22.6 billion in federal grants Indiana received during fiscal year 2025.
- Federal grants accounted for 42% of Indiana's general revenue in fiscal year 2025, and the dashboard allows users to sort and review six years of federal spending data across state government.
- Unlike federal databases like USASpending, this platform focuses on actual dollars spent by state agencies, including vendor-level spending data pulled from the state's PeopleSoft financial system.
- "The historical data included further enables spotting trends and flagging where extra review is needed," Nieshalla said, assisting agency partners in rooting out fraud, waste, or abuse.
- Braun commended Comptroller Nieshalla for the initiative, stating the dashboard strengthens confidence in government resource management, while officials expect to continue refining the platform based on feedback.
