Treasury ETFs are suitable for investors looking for safety, liquidity and ease of access to the U.S. government bond market. They can be used as part of a diversified investment portfolio to achieve specific objectives, such as income generation and capital preservation.
Because U.S. Treasurys are tax-free at the state and local level, interest payments from sovereign bond ETFs that hold U.S. Treasurys are also exempt from state and local income taxes. They are subject to federal taxes, however. Interest payments from overseas bond ETFs are taxed as ordinary income.

The biggest downside of investing in T-bills is that you're going to get a lower rate of return compared to other investments, such as certificates of deposit, money market funds, corporate bonds or stocks. If you're looking to make some serious gains in your portfolio, T-bills aren't going to cut it.
