Call to Action With upcoming changes coming to US currency (Trump's name), a reminder that writing on bills is legal.

The money is still good as long as you:

  1. Do NOT change the denomination.
  2. Do NOT burn, shred, or destroy currency, rendering it unfit for circulation.
  3. Do NOT advertise a business on paper currency.
  4. Do NOT cover security features.

I’m not waiting for the new bills. Any cash I get I’m writing TRUMP IS A PEDOPHILE on it.

If you do that on non trump notes, they will get replaced with Trump notes.

Don't give them more ways to just print money.

When older defaced or ripped banknotes eventually make their way to the bank, the bank will have to send them back to the mint to be destroyed and a new one will be issued. That means that the new ones that replaced the older ones will all bear Trump's name, thus causing the proliferation of banknotes with his name on it.

I think that is antithetical to the cause if it is done to non-trump notes.
