Donald Trump, the first sitting American president who could appear on banknotes, announces the U.S. Treasury.

Donald Trump will be the first sitting president of the United States to have his signature on American banknotes, according to an announcement made by the Department of the Treasury. Trump's signature will appear alongside that of Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, in a unprecedented move intended to mark the 250th anniversary of America. Bessent stated that there is no stronger way to recognize the historical achievements of the country and President Trump than through banknotes that bear his name. Typically, American banknotes have featured the signatures of Treasury officials. This is the latest action by the administration to associate Trump's name with various government programs and public buildings.
