The National Priorities Project, a national non-profit and non-partisan research organization, provides a pie chart detailing all federal spending for fiscal year 2015 online at NationalPriorities.org. The National Priorities Project also offers pie charts individually breaking down federal discretionary and mandatory spending.

For the 2015 fiscal year, U.S. government spending totaled $3.8 trillion, including $2.45 trillion in mandatory spending and $1.11 trillion in discretionary spending. Furthermore, there was $229.15 billion spent to service interest on federal debt. Social security payments account for nearly 1/4 of total federal expenditures at $1.25 trillion, while spending on Medicare and other federal health programs totaled nearly $1 trillion. Military spending accounted for more than half of all discretionary expenditures at almost $600 million.
