There is a group of people fighting to get a womans face on the $20 bill. The group labels themselves as W20 and are hoping to have a face on it by 2020 because it will be the 100 anniversary of women gaining the right to vote. There are only 4 women left in the drawing including Eleanor Roosevelt, Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks, and Mankiller. These finalists were selected by a group of 250,000 voters which took place online.
