This proposed legislation, known as the "Donald J. Trump $250 Bill Act," aims to require the Secretary of the Treasury to issue new currency. Specifically, it mandates the printing of $250 Federal Reserve notes that will feature a portrait of Donald J. Trump . The bill states that these notes should be produced within one year of the Act's enactment. Furthermore, the bill includes a Sense of Congress suggesting these new bills would commemorate the semiquincentennial of the United States . A significant amendment is also proposed to existing law, which would create an exception to the general prohibition against depicting living individuals on U.S. currency and securities, specifically allowing for portraits of current or former Presidents.
