The United States Government Manual serves what purpose?

• A. Lists organization and activities of all US government agencies
• B. Provides weather forecasts
• C. Details state budgets
• D. Contains international treaties

Answer: (A)

The United States Government Manual is the official guide to the federal government, listing how it is organized and what each agency does. It describes each agency’s mission, functions, programs, major officials, and how to contact them, giving a clear picture of who is responsible for different areas of government work. It’s produced annually by the Office of the Federal Register and serves as a single, authoritative reference for understanding which agency handles a particular function and how the government is structured.

It isn’t a source for weather forecasts, state budgets, or international treaties—those topics come from other government publications and sources.
