SCRAMBLE: President Trump’s team pushes for new $250 bill with his face on it

President Trump’s team pushes for new $250 bill with his face on it. Key administration officials are pushing the Treasury Department’s Bureau of Engraving and Printing to design a $250 banknote with Trump’s image, the Washington Post reported . Should the Treasury Department move ahead with the plan, it would mark the first time a living person’s face was slapped on a greenback since 1866. The $250 note would be a nod to America’s 250th birthday this year. Under the Thayer Amendment, which passed in 1866, it is illegal to put the likeness of a living person on official US currency, bonds, or other financial notes.
