Donald J. Trump $250 Bill Act

This bill would create a new $250 paper bill and require the Treasury to print it within one year of the law taking effect. The bill would feature a portrait of Donald J. Trump and is meant to mark America’s 250th anniversary. It also changes the law so that living Presidents may appear on U.S. money and government securities, which is currently not allowed except under this new rule for Presidents.
