Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin wants to pass the buck to the next administration on putting famed abolitionist Harriet Tubman on a redesigned $20 bill. he’s more focused on counterfeiting issues, so the $10 bill and $50 bill will be updated before the $20. “The primary reason we’ve looked at redesigning the currency is for counterfeiting issues,” Mnuchin said. If, as Mnuchin claimed, the impetus is counterfeiting, he’d probably want to start with the $20 bill. In the United States, the $20 bill is the most frequently counterfeited note, according to Reuters.
