<\/a>An organization called Women on 20s is encouraging President Obama to put a woman on the 20-dollar bill, but they want to know which woman the public wants to see. For some background, it’s not all that difficult to change the face on cash. Women on 20s explains it:<\/p>\n“Fortunately, it doesn’t take a messy act of Congress to change a portrait on paper money.

From those 15, the top three plus Cherokee Nation Chief Wilma Mankiller will move to the final round, where you can choose your favorite. Women on 20s will submit the winner to President Obama and encourage him ask the Treasury to make a change.<\/p>\n
This really is something we can make happen.<\/p>\n
