AR 116 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Urges U.S. Department of Treasure to place Harriet Tubman on $20 bill without delay.

This Assembly Resolution (AR 116) urges the U.S. Department of the Treasury to place Harriet Tubman's image on the $20 bill immediately, rather than waiting until at least 2030 as currently planned. It highlights Tubman's historical significance as an Underground Railroad conductor, Civil War spy, and advocate for freedom and equality. The resolution, sponsored by Assemblywoman Carol A. Murphy, is non-binding and serves only to express New Jersey's support for this change.
