Many of them are packages involving multiple state and local subsidies. We created the list to fill gaps in the official disclosure data that make up the bulk of the content in Subsidy Tracker. Megadeal entries thus rely on a wide variety of information sources. In some cases these entries overlap entries from specific subsidy programs. In those instances the dollar totals on the Parent Summary Pages and the State Summary Pages are adjusted to avoid double-counting.](https://subsidytracker.goodjobsfirst.org/resources/images/qmark.gif) |
