Announcement to be made this week
There will be a change to the back of the $10 as well.
I always thought that Jackson would be rolling over in his grave had he known his image was on a Federal Reserve note anyway.

This one gets my vote:
I approve.
Glad to see Hamilton staying and Jackson going.
Id rather remove both, but if I had to choose to keep only one, I'd keep Jackson.
But as previously mentioned, Jackson definitely wouldn't like the idea of central bank notes anyway, let alone being depicted on one.
I'm not a fan of Hamilton's hand in the establishment of a privately-run central bank for the United States, which Jefferson and Madison both objected to and Jackson finally killed off.
That Hamilton is staying and Jackson is going is just another illustration of who really pulls the (purse) strings.
Heidi Fleiss should be on the hundred!

Politically correct nonsense, hope it never gets implemented.

Loves me some shiny!
The first relevance is not to merit or achievement, but to gender.
Laughable.

Bingo!
Well, if a woman is to grace the $20, maybe it should be this one .... !!!!
I think Lady Liberty would be the best choice - on all circulating coins and currency.
Agree. Save real people for commemorative coins.

I knew it would happen.

Exactly, it makes more sense.
I wish Hillary was qualified to be on it......
She isn't even as qualified as Bubba was to appear on $3 notes.

Why in the world would they decide something like this but wait 14 years to do it? That's crazy.
something the US government is doing is crazy?
I.am. shocked.

I'm very glad to see they will be putting a woman on a U.S. note, and especially the $20 note, however, it's too bad that, due to bureaucracy, it won't even happen until 2030 at the earliest!
That is such BS. They should replace Jackson in 2020 at the latest for the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment. They can replace the portrait with the same current security features and upgrade to the new technology later.
If this were a Republican Sec. of Treasury, the press would be burning him at the stake now.

I agree Rick. But which one?
The contemporary one which could be represented by any number of different races?
The classic one?
ALL would cause dissenting opinions based upon individual beliefs.

I think you missed his point............

Maybe a "person" isn't the correct choice. Maybe they should have gone with renderings of Bald Eagles? Or perhaps Federal Buildings? Independence Hall? The Liberty Bell? The USS Constitution?

JFC. First it was $20 Jackson, then it was $10 Hamilton, now it's back to Jackson.
Sooner or later, Elon Musk portrait on the obverse with a Tesla in 3/4 portrait view on the reverse, maybe landing first stage rocket on a barge will be a possible reverse celebrated as an accomplishment.
Seems we can't get change fast enough. Abandon tradition. Change it all. Geo. Washington will be gone in 30 years.
Should be Janis Joplin because a lot of twenties are used to purchase .... Well, you know...

Lots of dark times and bad decisions have followed lots of presidents.

If a controversial woman is selected, will we start seeing notes with mustaches drawn on the portraits?
Canada seems to already have a problem!!

Jackson has long been an overrated president in large part because of the Pulitzer Prize winning book by Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., The Age of Jackson. In reality Jackson's "bank war" with The Bank of the United States was one of the major contributing factors that led to the Panic of 1837, which was a major economic depression. Jackson deserves high marks for his opposition to the nullification movement, which was one of the first crises that would lead to the Civil War. He gets much lower marks for his treatment of the American Indian before and while he was president, and his economic policies.
I fully support the removal of Jackson from the $20 bill and the retention of Alexander Hamilton on the $10 bill. Hamilton was founder of much of our modern monetary system, and his ideas concerning the need for a central bank were spot on. There is a strong need for a modern economic system to have a central bank regardless of what some far right wing people believe. The Gold Standard is an archaic and simple minded theory. In truth it didn't work that well in the simpler times when it was tried.
One can certainly object to the policies that the modern Federal Reserve System has enacted over the years, but the need for a central bank is obvious to anyone who has seriously studied economic history.

The only woman that should appear on currency is Liberty.
