Starting in June, the US will begin printing currency with Donald Trump's signature to commemorate the 250th anniversary of independence. The first banknotes will enter circulation in June.
US paper money will bear the signature of President Donald Trump starting this summer. This is the first time a sitting president has signed American money, Reuters reports, citing the US Treasury Department, UNN informs.
Details
It is noted that the updated banknotes, the issuance of which is timed to coincide with the 250th anniversary of US independence, will also for the first time in 165 years not bear the signature of the US Treasurer, who reports to the Secretary of the Treasury.
The first $100 banknotes with the signatures of Trump and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will be printed in June, with other denominations to follow in subsequent months. It may take several weeks for the new banknotes to circulate in banks
It is indicated that the US Treasury Department continues to issue banknotes with the signatures of the former head of the ministry during Joe Biden's presidency - Janet Yellen, and the treasurer - Lynn Malerba.
The Treasury is still issuing banknotes with the signatures of former Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and former Treasurer Lynn Malerba, both from President Joe Biden's administration.

The authors also quote current US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who said that "this move was appropriate for the 250th anniversary of the US, given the strong US economic growth and financial stability during Trump's second term."
