Donald J. Trump $250 Bill Act
This bill, HR 1761, would require the U.S. Treasury to print $250 Federal Reserve notes featuring a portrait of Donald J. Trump within one year of enactment, primarily to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States. It amends the Federal Reserve Act (Section 3) to mandate this specific currency denomination and attempts to modify existing law (Section 4) to allow living presidents on currency. The bill directly affects the U.S. Treasury's currency printing authority and would override current practices, as $250 bills do not exist in circulation and the Constitution prohibits denominations above $100. This is a symbolic procedural measure with no practical implementation under current U.S. currency law.
