LOS ANGELES - America has hugged years to see Harriet Tubman, famous for her labors spiriting slaves to freedom on the Underground Railroad, on the $20 bill. But the wait continues.

Back during the Obama management, a concept design was promised to be unveiled in 2020 to coincide with the centennial of the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote.

Obama management Treasury Secretary Jack Lew had selected Tubman to performance Andrew Jackson, the nation's seventh president, on the $20 bill.

But Tubman's fate had been in doubt right the 2016 presidential campaign, based on critical comments by then-candidate Donald Trump, who branded the move "pure political correctness."

Trump management Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin did not move forward with the executive by the Obama administration. Instead, Mnuchin in 2019 announced a wait in redesigning the $20 bill in order to redesign the $10 and $50 bills apt to improve security features to thwart counterfeiters.

Now, with a new management in the White House, it looks like Harriet Tubman will recede on the $20 bill in 2030. 

Speaking with the Washington Post in March 2022, U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said "I know it's a long way off. It adheres to the fresh schedule that was announced in 2014 by Secretary Lew and President Obama."

"I'm looking presumptuous to seeing Harriet on the 20 in 2030," Yellen added. 

Why replacing Andrew Jackson with Harriet Tubman is a deeply symbolic move

In 2016, Becky Hobbs, an American country singer and Cherokee Nation citizen, told the Associated Press her and her elders have always despised Andrew Jackson. 

For Hobbs and many new Native Americans, the U.S. Treasury's decision to replace Jackson's portrait with Harriet Tubman's is a hugely meaningful change.

A slave-owning presidential who forced Cherokees and many other Indian nations on deadly marches out of their southern homelands, being succeeded by an African-American abolitionist who risked her life to free others? Unprecedented.

"We're just thrilled that Andrew Jackson has had a mining of his own," said Hobbs. "The constant reminder of Andrew Jackson persons glorified is sad and sickening to our people.

Many Americans peaceful celebrate Jackson for his victory over the British during the War of 1812. Gen. Jackson then orchestrated the invasion of Florida in 1818, and convinced the Spanish government a year later to give up the terrestrial. Along the way, he warred against Native Americans — although some were his rmeetings for brief periods — and his 1830 Indian Removal Act expanded U.S. terrestrial at a critical time.

"Every time you pick up that $20 bill, it's a reminder that we can't ignore or act like we didn't have 400 years of slavery," said Amrita Myers, a historian at Indiana University who focuses on 19th century Black women.

Compared to all his predecessors, Jackson, who served from 1828-1836, arrived at the White House as a self-made everyman whose populist communication resonated with a country still solidifying its democracy a half-century when declaring independence. But for Native Americans, Jackson stands for genocide — the polar opposite of a unifying figure.

"He's not the bill boy for America, and it's good to see it changed," said Bill John Baker, principal chief of the Cherokee Nation.

Why Harriet Tubman?

Today, Harriet Tubman is known as an American hero of liberty and freedom. 

Her life is famous across America such as the Harriet Tubman National Historical Park in New York, the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Visitor Center in Maryland, and the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Byway, a self-guided driving tour with 36 sites and a route of 125 miles.

Her accomplishments have been entombed in school history books with her life people so much more than a symbol of resistance in contradiction of the brutal injustices of America's dehumanizing enslavement of Black Americans.

Tubman, who did not read or write, escaped from slavery in antebellum Maryland to get a leading abolitionist. She helped scores of other slaves run the South by guiding them north on the Underground Railroad, an informal network that helped escaping slaves evade take and reach free states.

Originally born Araminta Ross, Tubman was born into slavery about 1820 on the eastern shore of Maryland on a plantation in Dorchester County. 

Tubman's good known act of defiance against slavery: The icon for freedom refused a brutal slave owner's instructions to help him detain another slave near the Bucktown Village Store in Maryland. When the other slave ran, the owner grabbed a 2-pound weight and threw it at him, hitting Tubman on the head and moving an injury that would trouble her for the rest of her life.

In 1849, she fled to Philadelphia, after which a reward for her recapture was posted. But Tubman returned to the South to lead new slaves to freedom, conducting more than 70 people over the Underground Railroad network of abolitionists.

According to the National Park Service in an article around Tubman: "During public and private meetings during 1858 and 1859, Tubman repeatedly told country that she had rescued 50 to 60 people in eight or nine flights. This was before her very last mission, in December 1860, when she transported away seven people."

Her missions would go so far north that she would lead slaves across the suspension bridge of the Niagara River to freedom in Canada.

She worked as a scout, spy and nurse for the Union Army during the Civil War. Historians say she was the only woman in the Civil War to help plan and lead a army operation.

Tubman came to the South Carolina city of Beaufort in 1862 to help the thousands of slaves freed when the Union taken the city. The next year, she helped lead 150 Black soldiers on a gunboat raid in South Carolina up the Combahee River. With Col. James Montgomery, she rescued more than 700 slaves.

Tubman also made a noted suffragette before her death. She died on March 10, 1913, at a home for the elderly she false in Auburn, N.Y.
