Cecil,
Typically this would be considered a "homework" question.  However I am interested in trying to help you on this one.  Can you be more specific on the types of funding that you are looking for?  Do you want to know of ALL federal funds provide to the states?  Or are you looking for specific funding from federal agencies?

Answer
Cecil,
The best site that I know of to begin researching something like this is Budget Analyst: http://www.budgetanalyst.com/

I would start there.  If you can't find it from that site, I would go on the House and Senate homepages.

I think you will find some interesting facts on Budget Analyst.  Unfortunately I was unable to find the exact site you were looking for.

Best of luck.
Eric
