WASHINGTON – It started as a revelation and is now a full-blown movement on social media.
Women across the country, including actresses such as Susan Sarandon, are taking selfies with President Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill and sharing their photos on social media in support of an effort to put a woman’s face on the bill.
Susan Ades Stone, of Women on the 20s, says founder Barbara Ortiz Howard realized when rifling through her wallet at a coffee shop that there were no women on any U.S. paper money. What she didn’t initially realize was how simple the codes that govern the money are.

8:50 You probably voted for Obama as well. You should vote for Joan Of Ark, after all, she was Noah's wife.
Billy Hayes in full Witchypoo makeup.
So many faces from which to choose. I think the ones that we know best should be first considered: Betty Crocker, Aunt Jemima, Wendy, Betty or Veronica and Olive Oyl.
What?
the suusan B. Anthony wasnt good enough? a solid coin worth that of George Washington on the 1$ bill. and coins last longer. how liberal, wanting to change everything.
I guess it's fair , they really know how to spend the money , more , more , more money.
Yeah, you put an illegal alien in the WH just because he's half black.
And now anybody on a $20 just for being born female?
Some people never learn from their mistakes.
Why waste tax payers money changing something that has worked very well since 1928 (the year Jackson first appeared on the $20 bill). Lord knows, we have a Nation going straight to Hell in a hand basket, and the loons are worried about who should be on a $20 bill. By the time the smoke clears, with Hillary pictured upon it,, that $20 bill will probably be as worthless as she is. IMO the people need higher priorities - more on the line of bringing a once great Nation back to status.
If it is to be, then, I being a 78 year old white Female suggest Rosa Parks. That (perhaps) will stop the kerfuffles created by women and also by Blacks.
She definitely needs to be gay.
Bruce Jenner?
Mrs. Andrew Jackson?
FDR's mistress?
Mary Jo Kopechne?
Chelsea Clinton?
Moochelle?
Kardashians?
Janet Reno?
The common theme on circulated paper currency has been Presidents and founders (Hamilton). Someday we may have a female president; after she passes it may be useful to put her image on a bill of some sort, but not until she passes.
We have had women on coins; Susan B Anthony, and later Sacagawea, as well as Victory on the dime.
Leave well enough alone. Personalize your credit card.
Sacajawea
Marge Simpson.
I vote for Monica!
how about jim ireton
This is a stupid idea, and I am a woman.
Little Know Fact.
Martha Washington is the only woman whose portrait has appeared on a U.S. currency note. It appeared on the face of the $1 Silver Certificate of 1886 and 1891, and the back of the $1 Silver Certificate of 1896.
