Harriet Tubman Tribute Act of 2023

The Harriet Tubman Tribute Act of 2023 requires the U.S. Treasury to feature Harriet Tubman's likeness on the front of all new $20 bills printed after December 31, 2030. This change directly affects the design of U.S. currency and the Treasury's printing process. The bill allows a potential two-year delay (until 2032) if the Treasury Secretary determines, after specific consultations, that issuing the new bills would create unacceptable counterfeiting risks or disrupt the economy. The legislation mandates this policy change for future $20 bills, replacing the current portrait.
