The first half of the $1.8-billion coming into our state as part of the American Rescue Plan is in the bank.� House Speaker Pro Tempore Jason White told SuperTalk Mississippi they received the check this week.� It’s big money, equal to the entire annual state budget.� Unlike funding received in the past, this money has relatively few restrictions, though it does have to be spent by 2024.
The package also includes over $1-billion for municipalities and counties.
