H.R.1976

Federal HB1976 mandates Harriet Tubman's portrait on the $20 bill, prohibiting new notes without it after December 31, 2028.

Federal HB1976, the Woman on the Twenty Act of 2025, requires the $20 bill to feature Harriet Tubman's portrait. The bill prohibits printing new $20 notes without this portrait after December 31, 2028. This marks the first time a woman will be featured on U.S. paper currency. The bill highlights the historical absence of women on U.S. currency and follows the Treasury's 2016 announcement of Harriet Tubman's inclusion on the $20 bill.
