In the past few days the Biden administration has reportedly begun reinstating efforts to add Harriet Tubman’s portrait to the $20 bill, replacing Andrew Jackson. This project was originally initiated by the Obama administration, and is finally being brought to fruition.

Another change a little closer to home, is the decision to replace Donny Osmond on the $17 bill with Eliza R. Snow. The newly instated Governor Cox has decided to follow in the footsteps of the Biden administration, beginning his term by ending a white man’s time on a dollar bill. 

The $17 bill has had a long and rich history despite being legal currency only in Utah County, Utah. Governor Cox’s official statement on the decision to replace Osmond includes regrets that this may tarnish the legacy of the Masked Singer (almost) Champion, however he feels that it is more fitting to give this honor to Snow. “As one of the most influential 19th century Utah women, Eliza R. Snow greatly deserves this honor,” Cox explained. “She was a renowned poet and leader where Donny Osmond pretty much just sings. Also, he’s definitely still alive and I’m pretty sure you have to be dead to be on currency, I don’t know how he got around that.”

Not everyone is happy about the change, specifically Osmond’s removal. Members of the Donny Osmond Fan Club have been protesting at the state capital all week. Hannah Madigan, president of the Orem chapter, explained, “I cannot believe the governor would do this, it is a complete outrage. I mean sure, Eliza R. Snow wrote a bunch of hymns and like was president of the Relief Society and all that but did you even see Donny as Joseph? Him being shirtless alone is enough of a contribution to merit being on a dollar bill.”

Despite these protests, however, it seems unlikely that the Governor will change his mind. Fan clubs and everyone else will have to resign themselves to saying goodbye to their beloved “Donny Dollar”.
