Local tribes react to new $20 bill

MEDFORD, Ore.-- Harriet Tubman is moving Andrew Jackson to the back of $20 bills. Tubman's face will be on the front while Jackson's is moving to the back.

Jackson is known for the Indian Removal Act. Back in the 1800s, he removed tribes to other regions in exchange for their land. Some council members of the Klamath Tribes said what he did was horrendous, and do not mind his face being removed.
