Tubman No Longer on $20 Bill | Buffalo News

from Buffalo News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The U.S. Treasury has officially dropped plans to feature Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill, with Secretary Scott Bessent confirming it’s “not on the agenda.” After years of debate and initial momentum under the Obama administration — aimed at making Tubman the first African American on U.S. currency — the move now reflects shifting priorities, particularly within Republican circles. While redesigning currency remains a long-term project, the Tubman bill is no longer a focus. The conversation on representation continues, with Lincoln staying on the $5 bill.
