Rumors have been swirling since last year about Harriet Tubman‘s placement on the $20 bill. Welp, word on the streetz is that there’s a strong chance that it’s actually happening.

Sources say that Treasury Secretary Jack Lew is scheduled to make an official announcement as early as today about a decision that will remove Andrew Jackson from the 20 dollar bill and replace him with Harriet Tubman.

From CNBC:

The decisions will come more than a month after Lin-Manuel Miranda, the star of the Broadway musical “Hamilton,” spoke with Lew about keeping Hamilton on the $10 bill, and about a year after Women on 20s, a nonprofit organization, began a movement to replace former President Andrew Jackson with a woman on the $20.

Historic!
