U.S. Congressman Brandon Gill (R-TX) has introduced the Golden Age Act, a bill seeking to replace Benjamin Franklin’s image on the $100 bill with that of former President Donald Trump.
Gill justified the move by stating that the U.S. is undergoing a historic rebirth under Trump’s leadership and that his legacy should be permanently honored.
The proposal has sparked intense debate, with supporters praising it as a recognition of Trump’s economic policies, while critics argue that altering the bill is unnecessary and politically divisive.
Financial and historical experts have pointed out that Franklin’s contributions to American history go beyond politics, making his presence on the bill deeply symbolic.
If passed, the redesign would mark one of the most significant changes to U.S. currency in decades. However, the bill faces a tough road ahead, requiring approval from Congress and the Treasury Department.
The Golden Age Act is expected to fuel further political and ideological discussions in the coming months.
