When our modern currency was first designed nearly a century ago, then-Treasury Secretary Andrew Mellon received a typed memo from his staff suggesting individuals to be honored on the new bills. @AnnieLinskey tracked it down as part of her reporting on Harriet Tubman & the $20: https://t.co/8JV4sVChbV — PolitiTweet.org

Changing America’s money has long been a glacial process. One Treasury aide told @AnnieLinskey that the blue thread that appears in the recently released $100 bill took the government *a decade* to develop. It took half that time for us to win WWII. https://t.co/Hry5yXeYBp — PolitiTweet.org

The Oct. 1927 memo listed Grover Cleveland as the proposed face of the $20 and Andrew Jackson for the $1,000. Andrew Mellon crossed their names out and, with his pencil, ordered their positions reversed. Let's get this done: Put Tubman on the $20 ASAP! https://t.co/Hry5yXeYBp — PolitiTweet.org
