Treasury official says Harriet Tubman will go on $20 bill (http://bigstory.ap.org/2b5d8f938a5a4e1fb554cffdcfeb1459)
WASHINGTON (AP) — A Treasury official says Secretary Jacob Lew has decided to put Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill, making her the first woman on U.S. paper currency in 100 years.
The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity in advance of Lew's official announcement, says that the 19th century abolitionist and leader of the Underground Railroad, would replace the portrait of Andrew Jackson, the nation's seventh president.
The announcement is expected to provide details on other changes being made to the $20, $10 and $5 bills.
The decision to place Tubman's portrait on the $20 likely means that Lew has decided to keep Alexander Hamilton on the $10 bill, a victory for those who had opposed his initial plan to remove Hamilton.

The $10 bill is the next note scheduled to be redesigned to introduce updated protections against counterfeiting. That redesign was scheduled to be unveiled in 2020, which marks the 100th anniversary of women getting the right to vote. Lew had often cited that connection as a reason to put a woman on the $10 bill.
However, the effort ran into strong objections from supporters of Hamilton, who is enjoying renewed interest with the hit Broadway musical "Hamilton."
Get bumped off a dollar bill cause of a play, brehs :dead

Adjusted for inflation in 2030, it will only be worth about $12. :hitler

A Jackson play would be way more hip hop than Hamilton.

2030? No need to worry, I'm sure one of the first things President Trump will do after taking office is change this decision and put Strom Thurmond or someone on it instead.

I don't remember the last time I got a $20 bill in change. Maybe when going to buy something on Craigslist.

Why don't we just take everyone off the damn bills. It's not like the kids of today even know who the fuck are on our bills and what they meant to the creation of our government/country.

That's the silliest 'kids these days' grumbling I've seen in a while
