A Congressman wants new $250 bill with Trump’s face on it

Palmdale, CA.-A Republican congressman is proposing the creation of a new $250 U.S. dollar bill that prominently features Donald Trump’s face.

The bill's sponsor says a new $250 bill will help "families carry less cash," while also celebrating the president on the 250th anniversary of the United States.
