The Trump administration is pressuring the Bureau of Engraving and Printing to issue a $250 banknote featuring the portrait of Donald Trump.This proposed design aims to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the nation despite clear legal prohibitions against depicting living individuals on currency.Internal opposition from director Patricia Solimene regarding the 1866 Thayer Amendment resulted in her recent reassignment.While federal legislation remains stalled in
Congress, the bureau has already introduced the signature of
Donald Trump on $100 notes.
