Trump Skips Walter Reed Visit to Injured Soldiers
A bill proposing to feature Donald Trump on a $250 bill, which would represent a significant departure from the long-standing prohibition against depicting living individuals on U.S. currency, has stalled in Congress. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing’s printing director, Patricia Solimene, was reassigned after explaining the extensive legal and procedural challenges, including the typical six-to-eight-year timeline for new currency production and the lack of authorization. Solimene stated her reassignment was involuntary, emphasizing her commitment to the U.S. Currency Program and the organization’s values.
