Female currency – should a woman replace Andrew Jackson on $20 bills?

The vote's in, and Harriet Tubman will be the first woman on a $20 bill if a campaign to have a female on U.S. currency receives government backing.

“Our paper bills are like pocket monuments to great figures in our history,” said Women On 20s Executive Director Susan Ades Stone in a press release. “Our work won’t be done until we’re holding a Harriet $20 bill in our hands in time for the centennial of women’s suffrage in 2020.”

Women on 20s, the group leading this cause, hopes their campaign will promote historical recognition of significant ladies, and "full political, social and economic equality for women," according to their website. The number twenty comes into significance as 1920 was the first year women could vote, and 2020 marks 100 years of women's suffrage.

The organization said it's waiting for President Obama to follow through with his statements about putting more women on American money. Presidential and Congressional approval, however, help isn't required to make the cosmetic change, according to a report by Inquisitr. It's all up to the Department of the Treasury, who put women on coins like the gold dollar in the past.

This idea has triggered debate about the importance of feminine representation on money, with some naysayers saying that such a change could set a precedent for special treatment of an endless number of groups in the future.
