The redesign of the $20 bill, which would feature Harriet Tubman, will no longer be unveiled next year, said Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin.

“The primary reason we have looked at redesigning the currency is for counterfeiting issues,” Mnuchin said after he was questioned Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.), as reported by CNBC.
