Florida DOT (FDOT) installed Vehicle Awareness Devices (VADs) on a set of Lynx transit buses as part of a demonstration for the ITS World Congress held in Orlando in October 2011. These VADs recorded vehicle data during the World Congress and continue to operate after the World Congress. Periodically the VADs are removed from the vehicles and the data files are retrieved. FHWA Has confirmed that the data do not contain identification of individual transit operators or any other forms for Personally Identifiable Information (PII). This legacy dataset was created before data.transportation.gov and is only currently available via the attached file(s). Please contact the dataset owner if there is a need for users to work with this data using the data.transportation.gov analysis features (online viewing, API, graphing, etc.) and the USDOT will consider modifying the dataset to fully integrate in data.transportation.gov.

During the 2014 ITS World Congress a demonstration of the connected vehicle infrastructure in the City of Detroit was conducted. The test site included approximately 14 intersections around Detroit’s COBO convention center and involved 9 equipped vehicles. Traveler Situation Data (TSD) was obtained from the data warehouse, and not the data clearinghouse. Only 19 messages were obtained from our query as the current mode of operation of the Test Bed is that the warehouse only contains a few static messages, which are meant to serve as a proxy for future operation in which query submissions will only return message(s) relevant to the context in which the query was submitted. The messages that returned per a query submission communicates a pertinent advisor message which is in part contextualized by location and content.

The United States is the largest contributor to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank, providing resources in exchange for voting power in these international financial institutions (IFIs). While the Treasury Department manages the day-to-day aspects of US participation in these institutions, Congress retains authority on funding. With the aim of understanding the microincentives of US support for the IFIs, I analyze congressional voting on bills to fund the IFIs. I argue that members of congress are more likely to support a funding increase (1) the more “liberal” their ideology, (2) the larger the share of campaign contributions they get from banks that specialize in international lending, and (3) the larger the share of voters that gain from economic globalization that reside in their districts. Statistical analyses of voting on five IFI funding bills since 1977 provide support for these arguments.

Overview

The publication of the data and story is EMBARGOED until 3:01 a.m. ET on Monday, April 4, 2022. It is intended for print publication on or after April 4. The data may be used for reporting immediately.

This dataset includes a combined set of congressional earmarks tied to the $1.5 trillion federal spending bill passed in March 2022.

The source documents were released by the relevant appropriations committees as PDF files. The AP has extracted the information and compiled a spreadsheet with all 4,975 listed projects. Each row lists the federal agency and program that administers the money. There’s also a description of the project — sometimes frustratingly vague — and its location, the amount approved and the House and Senate members who requested them.

The data can be searched and sorted to see who got what. Many projects were requested by multiple lawmakers, but there’s no double-counting — each project is listed only once. Some projects may have lawmakers from only one chamber doing the requesting, while others can have members from both the House and Senate. If a lawmaker’s name does not appear at all in the dataset, that means they didn’t receive projects.

The data accompanies a story published on April 4, 2022 that detailed the spending earmarked by members of Congress in the latest federal funding bill passed and signed by the President. The story found:

• "Home-district projects for members of Congress are back, sprinkled across the government-wide $1.5 trillion bill President Joe Biden signed recently. The official tally shows amounts modest by past standards yet spread widely around the country — and that understate what lawmakers are claiming credit for.
• The bipartisan measure, financing federal agencies this year, contains 4,975 such projects worth $9.7 billion, according to an Associated Press examination of items attributed to specific lawmakers in documents accompanying the bill. The listed projects, long called earmarks, ranged from $4,000 for evidence detection equipment for Huntington, West Virginia, to $350 million to help restore Florida’s vast but imperiled Everglades.

• The projects' reemergence after an 11-year hiatus, with transparency requirements and other curbs, marks a revival of expenditures that let lawmakers tout achievements to voters and help party leaders build support for legislation. While still vilified by some, especially conservatives, as emblems of influence peddling and wasteful spending, they've been embraced by lawmakers from both parties, who cite Congress’ constitutional power of the purse and say they know their local needs."

  Findings

• There were 4,975 earmarked projects worth a total of $9.7 billion included.

• Retiring Sen. Richard Shelby attained $126 million for two campuses of the University of Alabama, his alma mater, including for an endowment for its flagship Tuscaloosa campus to hire science and engineering faculty. There was also hundreds of millions to improve the city of Mobile's seaport and airport, part of a total $648 million he amassed for his state.

• Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., had 203 projects for New York, ranging from $27 million to upgrade Fort Drum's water systems to $44,000 for neighborhood improvements in the city of Geneva, the AP found. Facing what should be easy reelection this fall, Schumer totaled $314 million, including at least $23 million for hospitals, violence prevention and other programs in his home borough of Brooklyn.

• Of five senators facing tough reelection races this fall, three Democrats received at least $81 million each in projects: Sens. Mark Kelly of Arizona, Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada and Raphael Warnock of Georgia. Two others, Sens. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., and Ron Johnson, R-Wis., requested and received none.

• While House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., wasn't listed as getting any projects, his top two lieutenants were. No. 2 leader Steve Scalise, R-La., got $31 million, including $5 million for Louisiana State University aerospace research. No. 3 GOP leader Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., won $35 million, including sharing credit with Schumer and Gillibrand for improving Fort Drum's $27 million water project.

  About This Data

  The original source of the data was 10 PDF files which can be found here: https://www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/AG CPF CDS FINAL FOR STATEMENT.pdf https://www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/CJS_CDS_V6.pdf https://www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Defense_CDS.pdf https://www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/EW_CDSV5.pdf https://www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/FSGG Printed CDS Table.pdf https://www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/HOMELAND_CDS.pdf https://www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/INT_CDS_V3.PDF https://www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/LHHS_CDS_V3 (GPO Turn 3-5).pdf https://www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/MilCon_CDS.pdf https://www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/THUD_CDS_V5.pdf

Each file contained earmarks tied to a certain appropriations subject area or funding steam, such as agriculture, defense or transportation.

The AP extracted the information from these documents and then combined them into a single dataset. Several of the documents included additional columns that were not present in the majority of the appropriations tables, and yet others included columns with different names and/or that were filled in with slightly different information.

The AP reconciled and consolidated these disparate columns together to create a dataset including the most relevant pieces of information in a standardized way.

Please note the source documents identified requesting members of congress by their name alone, and that multiple House or Senate requestors were listed together in a single column. The AP did not change that method for this data release. This means you can filter by a member's name to see all of his or her earmarks, however you won't be able to create "top 10 members" or "top 10 states" rankings using the file alone as it is provided. (For the initial story accompanying this data release, the AP also relied on separate work by the nonprofit group Taxpayers for Common Sense who had conducted work to standardize and match up the member names to states and legislative votes. Reporters may contact them as well to obtain the TCS dataset if you should wish.)

• Some earmarks may have resulted from a request by the Biden White House itself, though only a small number of the appropriations documents provided information on those instances. The AP’s standardized dataset includes only the ultimate total requested for the project, even if in some instances part or all of that earmark originated with the Biden administration. While this affects only a small number of records, some notable instances include the $350 million Everglades restoration project, requested by Rep. Brian Mast, R-Fla., and at least $99 million that Sen. Shelby procured was also proposed by the president.
• Location information can be a bit fluid in how it was documented by the appropriations committees. Sometimes a city,
