The U.S. Treasury Department said that Trump's signature on the currency bills is "well-deserved."

The U.S. Department of the Treasury announced that to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States of America, President Trump's signature will appear alongside the Secretary of the Treasury's signature on future dollar bills, marking the first time in history that a sitting president's signature will appear on U.S. currency. Treasury Secretary Bernette said, "Under the leadership of President Trump, we are moving towards unprecedented economic growth, long-term dominance of the dollar, and fiscal strength and stability. There is no better way to highlight the historic achievements of our great nation and President Trump than by issuing dollar bills with his name on them. It is timely to issue this historically significant currency on the 250th anniversary of the founding of our country." Treasury Secretary Brandon Beach expressed, "As the architect of the economic revival of the American Golden Age, the president's position in history is beyond doubt. To have his signature printed on U.S. currency is not only appropriate, but also well-deserved."
