Infrastructure, appropriations, and more are on the congressional to-do list now that President Joe Biden has signed the $1.9 billion Covid-19 relief package into law.

Bloomberg Government legislative analysts held a webinar today, looking back at the American Rescue Plan Act and to what’s ahead for the rest of 2021.

All eyes are on Biden’s next big proposal, which could top $3 trillion and cover a wide range of issues including infrastructure, climate change, health care, and taxes. In the meantime, House Democrats have moved aggressively to advance their high-priority bills, which face an uncertain fate in the Senate because of the filibuster.

The analysts also examined other items that Congress could address in the coming months, including immigration, technology, and foreign policy.
