Default Updated Balto $200 Federal Reserve Note Act

Okay, I know I will probably get flamed or insulted by posting this here, but I
decided I would post it to hear opinions even if they are bad opinions.

Section 1. Short Title

This Act may be cited as the "Balto $200 Federal Reserve Note Act"

Sec 2. Design and Issuance of a $200 Federal Reserve Note Featuring Balto, The
Famous Hero Sled Dog.

8th undesignated paragraph of section 16 of the Federal Reserve Act, begining
September 1, 2006, Federal Reserve notes in the denomination of $200 shall be
placed into circulation by Federal Reserve bank and shall have such designs and
be in such form and tenor as the Secretary may select in accordance with this
section.

(b) Balto's portrait shall adorn the obverse of these $200 Federal reserve
notes. No human portrait may be selected for the obverse of these $200 Federal

team of dogs to symbolize Balto's sled run.

$1,000 Federal Reserve notes. The text "The United States of America" and "One
Thousand Dollars" on the reverse of the 1928/1934 $1,000 Federal Reserve note
shall be retained on the redesigned $1,000 Federal Reserve notes.

Sec 5. Redesign of the $2 Federal Reserve note to Feature a Louisiana Purchase
Theme.

(a) Notwithstanding the authority of the Secretary of the Treasury under the
8th undesignated paragraph of section 16 of the Federal Reserve Act, begining

begining September 1 2005.

Sec. 6 Redesign of the $1 Federal Reserve Note.

(a) Notwithstanding the authority of the Secretary of the Treasury under the
8th undesignated paragraph of section 16 of the Federal Reserve Act, beging
September 1, 2005, Federal Reserve notes in the denomination of $1 shall be
redesigned to feature and updated version of the Great Seal of the United
States of America and low-vision numeral on the reverse, and an enlarged
portrait of President George Washington on the obverse that conforms the higher
denominations of the NexGen series Federal Reserve notes. These Redesigned $1

Sec 7. Redesign of the $5 Federal Reserve Note.

redesigned with a portrait of President Abraham Lincoln and updated version of
the Lincoln Memorial on the reverse that conforms the higher denominations of
the NexGen series Federal Reserve notes. These redesigned $5 Federal Reserve
notes shall be placed into circulation begining September 1, 2005.

I think I am going to send this bill to some congressmen even though putting a
dog on a Federal Reserve note is a long shot. But I will argue in a letter that
dogs also serve in the military, on the fire department, and on the police
force and get killed while serving people and that since dogs have served
mankind for over 30,000 years, they deserve to be honored. But I already said
that in the past.
