The tables below summarize total state expenditures by fiscal year. The National Association of State Budget Officers (NASBO) compiles this information and publishes it in the group's annual "State Expenditures Report."[1]
HIGHLIGHTS
  • Between fiscal years 2014 and 2015, total state spending (including both state and federal funds and excluding bonds) was estimated to have increased by about 7.65 percent, from $1.7 trillion in fiscal year 2014 to an estimated $1.83 trillion in fiscal year 2015.[2]
  • The state that spent the most in total funds was California, while South Dakota spent the least.
  • The state that spent the most per capita, however, was Alabama; the state with the lowest per capita spending was Florida.
  • During that same period, federal funding to states budgets increased from roughly $522 billion in 2014 to an estimated $585.7 billion in 2015. This represented a 7.64 percent increase.[2]

    • Fiscal year 2015

    Note: Figures for fiscal year 2015 are estimated by NASBO because the actual figures had not yet been reported as of April 2016. Those figures will be updated here when available.

    In the table below, figures for all columns except "Population" and "Per capita spending" are rendered in millions of dollars (for example, $2,448 translates to $2,448,000,000). Figures in the columns labeled "Population" and "Per capita spending" have not been abbreviated. Click on the arrows to sort the data.
