Trump to become first US president to have signature on every US dollar bill

President Donald Trump will become the first-ever US president to have his signature appear on every US dollar starting this summer.

The redesigned notes are planned to mark the 250th anniversary of American independence and will be the first time since 1861 that the currency drops the signature of the US Treasurer.

The first $100 bills with Trump’s signature and that of Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will be printed in June, followed by other bills in subsequent months.

At the same time, the Treasury is still producing notes bearing the signatures of former President Joe Biden’s Treasury secretary, Janet Yellen, and former Treasurer Lynn Malerba.

But Bessent argued that the move was appropriate for America’s 250th anniversary, given strong economic growth and financial stability during Trump’s second term.

‘There is no more powerful way to recognize the historic achievements of our great country and President Donald J. Trump than US dollar bills bearing his name, and it is only appropriate that this historic currency be issued at the semiquincentennial,’ he said in a statement.

Treasurer Brandon Beach also trumpeted the decision.

‘The president’s mark on history as the architect of America’s Golden Age economic revival is undeniable,’ he said. ‘Printing his signature on the American currency is not only appropriate, but also well-deserved.’
