Very preliminary planning discussions about an infrastructure and jobs package that could amount to as much as $3 trillion are expected to begin this week.

There was $650 billion of public investment that covers U.S. public finance as part of the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 recently signed into law.

It is possible a meaningful portion of an infrastructure package could also provide a boost to state and local governments and other public finance entities.
