Which Woman Should Be on $10 Bill?

Alexander Hamilton may have served as the United States’ first secretary of the treasury, but the Treasury Department has decided to replace him on currency.

The Treasury has announced that a woman will be featured on a redesigned 10 dollar bill.

Secy Lew will choose a woman who was a champion for democracy in the U.S. on the redesigned $10 note. #TheNew10 http://t.co/NtwytsvHxC

They asked for suggestions as to which woman should be chosen.

This summer, tell us how #TheNew10 can best represent the values of our inclusive democracy and feature a woman. http://t.co/NtwytsvHxC

And Twitter obliged:

Not a fan of Hamilton, so glad he’s off the $10. Hope Susan B. Anthony replaces him. Champion of women & the unborn. http://t.co/FXVK2Zy2yf

Where do we choose who goes on the $10? Can I nominate Jeanette Rankin?

Would love to see Harriet Tubman recognized for what she did #TheNew10

I’m torn between whether #TheNew10 design for the new $10 bill should feature Eleanor Roosevelt or Rosa Parks. So cool it will be a woman!

I say Geraldine Hoff, the women who inspired Rosie The Riveter . She symbolizes America’s drive to protect the world from tyrants. #TheNew10

It should be noted that there are currently women featured on U.S. currency in circulation; for example, Sacagawea and Susan B. Anthony both appear on dollar coins.

According to PBS, Martha Washington and Pocahontas have also appeared on paper currency.
