C-001 - Section 1
Executive summary keeps measurable lanes on their native bases
The opening section preserves lane separation instead of collapsing obligations, outlays, cumulative military lines, and domestic program examples into one number.
Claim Record
C-007 - ORR is owned as a domestic lane, not an overseas add-on
Claims are first-class structured records so the evidence platform can point every published conclusion back to its sources, decisions, and unresolved questions.
Claim record
Refugee and entrant assistance stays in one canonical domestic section so it is not double-counted against foreign-assistance accounts.

C-003 - Section 3
International assistance obligations and disbursements are not interchangeable
Section 3 preserves separate accounting states while carrying the unresolved beneficiary-capture share as an open question.
C-008 - Section 6
ORR provider capture remains a first-class unresolved limitation
The public record identifies the ORR lane but does not yet publish a defensible entrant-versus-provider split.
C-009 - Section 7
Emergency Medicaid is measurable on a federal-plus-state basis, not a federal-only basis
Section 7 preserves the measurable lane while carrying the missing federal-only share as an explicit open question.
C-010 - Section 8
SNAP noncitizen dollars are not backfilled with modeled estimates
Section 8 documents the eligibility framework and refuses unsupported benefit attribution by population share.
C-011 - Section 9
SSI is one of the clearest direct-cash domestic lanes
The current edition relies on SSA-published noncitizen recipient and payment inputs while preserving the point-in-time limitation.
C-012 - Section 10
Housing eligibility rules already exclude many ineligible uses through Section 214 and proration
Section 10 is strongest on program mechanics, not on a missing published eligible-noncitizen outlay total.
C-013 - Section 11
K-12 and student-aid analysis is constrained by legal collection limits and eligibility structure
Section 11 treats missing education spending ledgers as a real transparency limit rather than something to impute.
C-014 - Section 12
State-administered federal dollars add zero net-new dollars by design
Section 12 is a routing and reconciliation lens that guards against double counting once federal money passes through state systems.
C-015 - Section 13
The gap register is itself a finding, not an empty placeholder
Section 13 names programs where the record does not support a defensible citizenship breakout and refuses to fabricate missing values.
C-016 - Section 14
The conservative total is a reproducible set of subtotals, not one synthetic number
Section 14 is locked to a blueprint that preserves incompatible bases instead of flattening them into a false grand total.
C-017 - Section 15
Publication limits remain visible and binding
Section 15 preserves missing-record constraints as governance rules for what the audit may claim.
C-018 - Section 16
The final argument inherits the same basis rules and evidence limits
Section 16 does not create a new theory of the numbers; it restates bounded findings from the locked sections.
