Forget the $20... Put her on a $500 bill. That's about the value needed when we adjust for inflation from the time the US Government took everything over $100 out of circulation as an attempt to crack down on the underground economy. Tubman was all about the underground railroad. Honor her for that, too.
And, while we're at it, repeal the laws requiring banks to act as government agents when citizens deal in large amounts of cash, as well as the seizure laws that allow the government and its agents to seize monies suspected of being used for criminal activity.
The Bill of Rights says that our papers, personal effects, and persons are not to be seized or searched without due process!
Just when did the Fourth Amendment get repealed? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
[The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
