Per WTLX:
South Carolina Congressman Joe Wilson is working on legislation that would direct the U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing to design a $250 bill featuring President Donald Trump.
“Most valuable bill for most valuable President!” Wilson wrote on X.
According to Wilson’s policy advisor, the proposed bill would commemorate the nation’s 250th anniversary in 2026 while also recognizing what they describe as Trump’s efforts in battling inflation under the Biden administration.
They also want to highlight the idea that Americans should not have to carry large quantities of cash on them when they go to the grocery shop.
However, a long-standing federal law could pose a challenge. A provision passed in 1866 prohibits living individuals from appearing on U.S. currency. Wilson’s office stated that his legislation would address this issue, though details on how remain unclear.

The new $250 bill would be historic because it would make President Trump the only living president to be featured on United States currency.
