This figure was parsed from Commerce's FY2027 Congressional Justification, not from a standard budget exhibit. It is approximate and it is not summable with other lines. It is published so you can check it: the citation below names the exact page it was read off. Where a dollar figure matters, verify it there before using it.

From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Commerce's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.

In the agency's own words

What this funds

In May 2025, the Administration announced the termination of the Digital Equity Act programs due to reliance on race-based preferences that are inconsistent with constitutional principles. In FY 2026, NTIA will carry out an orderly shutdown of the programs, including termination and closeout of previously awarded grants. The termination of the Digital Equity Act programs does not apply to those funds statutorily set aside for Native Entities.

Extracted from National Telecommunications and Information Administration, p. 128. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.

What was actually awarded

Contracts funded by this line

1 linked contract. These are obligations — lifetime awarded money — and they are not comparable to the request above and are never added to it. No total is shown: an award linked to several lines is counted in full on each, so the sum would not be a fact.

Linked contracts are a floor, not a census. Coverage is bounded by how distinctively a program is named and, for performer links, to RDT&E and Procurement — O&M and military construction publish no performers. Budget figures are FY2027 request dollars; contract figures are obligations. The two measure different things and must never be summed together.
