    Like that's what is important first week in office. Fix the world first. We don't need a portrait eating up more time and funds

    Democraps are always happy to spend other people's money.

    Maybe they will use a image like this! They made up Susan B. Anthony and Sacagawea images in the past for coins. I really don't care what image is on the $20, I only worry if it will be worth anything.

    That's not actually Tubman, no photo exists of her carrying arms, but the documentation of her doing so exits as does her pistol an short sword.

    Nevermind that the Democrats pet project Planned Parenthood has murdered OVER HALF of all black children year after year. And now the numbers are in for last year, and the baby murderers have murdered 23 times more people in one year than Covid killed in one year. Put that on a billboard somewhere. Scream it from the rooftops. Tell everybody

    Take a "sampling" of black people from rural areas,big cities,north,and south,and ask them who Harriet Tubman was AND what she did/accomplished in American history.
    What percentage of those asked do you think would know ?? --- SAWMAN

    There are worse candidates to be on a dollar bill. But of course the real reason is politics. Tubman was a heroine of sorts during the civil war.
    When the Civil War began, Tubman worked for the Union Army, first as a cook and nurse, and then as an armed scout and spy. The first woman to lead an armed expedition in the war, she guided the raid at Combahee Ferry, which liberated more than 700 enslaved people. After the war, she retired to the family home on property she had purchased in 1859 in Auburn, New York, where she cared for her aging parents. She was active in the women's suffrage movement until illness overtook her, and she had to be admitted to a home for elderly African Americans that she had helped to establish years earlier. After her death in 1913, she became an icon of courage and freedom
    President Jackson was a famous military commander but did have a darkside for his role in the robbing of the Cherokee lands and the trail of tears. There are many people of Cherokee extraction to this day that have not forgotten.

    Have Native Americans Indians been vocal or pushing getting Jackson off the $20 or his stautues removed? I think this has been an issue predominantly about the Jackson's ownership of slaves datin dating back to 2016. During that time there was consideration of putting severap women and MLK on the backs of several Bills. Tubman also represented women which has not been on our paper currency since Martha Washington in the late 1800s. It has resurfaced as part of the cancel culture objectives like renaming military bases. It's a matter of applying todays standards on historical figures and extracting a peverted concept of justice from what was lawful at that period of time, that people of today are "offended" by. That application of punishing now for what was lawful at the time it transpired doesn't pass Constitutional muster but you will hear it bantered about. I don't have a problem with Tubman as a matter of course, change for the sake of change . We have others that were not presidents on paper currency but were impressive Statesmen and a banker named "Chase".

    When inflation gets bad we won't be able to carry the stacks of current currency in circulation for purchases and it will take more time counting cash than to shop. I'd like to see the $500, $1K and $5K notes come back in circulation. God help us if we need the $10K and the$100K! Gov will mandate universal plastic by then.

    Why Our Currency May Be Changing


    Overview The faces on our $10 and $20 bills may soon change, but what and who have pushed these changes? In 2015, a group called Women on Twenties called on the U.S. Treasury to replace Andrew Jackson’s portrait on the $20 bill. The group has argued that there is a lack of women represented in American currency. Furthermore, the group suggests that President Jackson’s decision to forcibly relocate several American Indian tribes of the Southeast to present-day Oklahoma makes him a figure unworthy of national respect. On top of this, Jackson opposed the use of paper currency, making his image on the $20 bill very ironic

    I think the lgbqtai+++ folks should pic the person for the $2 Bill. Also have one denomination for Women, Blacks, Indigenous Americans, Hispanics, Pacific Islanders, Generic Immigrants. No white privileged heterosexual males or Republicans allowed. Gov would need to bring back the $500 Bill to have enough platforms to add climate change or tree huggers. Seems a lot simpler to replace them all with animals/fish and stop all the whinning about "me too and he was a bad person 200 years ago" bullshit. How about we do it like statues and monuments because that's basically the memorializing desired: Groups that support it can raise the funds necessary to pay for it. NO BLOOMBURG, you can't buy your own place on currency: it's against the law to put the image of a living person on U.S. Currency.
