U.S. government officials say Treasury Secretary Jack Lew could release early images of redesigned $5, $10 and $20 bills in an effort to pressure the Trump Administration away from reversing their plans.

...in the throes of the primary election, Trump called the move “pure political correctness” and suggested moving Tubman to a lower denomination like the $2 bill.
“Andrew Jackson had a great history. I think it’s very rough when you take somebody off the bill,” Trump said last spring.

Harriet Tubman hated democrats!
I’m cool.
I’d rather have a Steve Bannon $20 bill.
....this has the stench of Odungo all over it...
Well at least they are replacing a Democrat with a Republican.
I’d rather have a Steve Austin $20 bill.
Bannon - YES! That ought to finish’em off!
I don’t care one way or the other, but couldn’t they find a better picture? Anyway, woman are getting their face on two currency. Of course nobody carries cash anymore so except for internet most won’t even see this picture in real life especially millennials.
Today he’d be a republican. Hell today JFK would be a republican.
All this is designed to do is create a backlash and stoke the fires of racism even more. Then we're going to hear how racist America is, blah blah blah...and then all paper money will be pulled from circulation and we'll get a stamp on the forehead.
Tubman is nowhere near Jackson's league. Jackson was beaten to an inch of his life when he was 14 because he refused to shine a British officer's shoes.
Later became a General, fought the Central Bank, paid off the national debt, and created a populist political philosophy that stands to this day.
More stupid nonsense .....
The wrestler or 6 Million Dollar Man?
If the commies do early release, the bills would be collector’s items, when DJT restores it right back!
Who was Harriet Tubman?
Second one.
With this change, the only Democrat on commonly used paper currency will have been removed.
Be thankful they didn’t replace Andrew Jackson with Moochie Obama.
Of course they would have to make the bill a lot wider to fit her on it.
He was a hero the way he survived that flight test!
Now, let’s get back to Wonder Woman as a United Nations ambassador!
Bogus. It’s not about Tubman with whom I take no issue, it’s about the bill having other than Founders, Framers, iconography or a government official.
If Tubman then why not Edison? Ford? etc.
