Women's Suffrage Centennial Commemorative Coin Act

This bill was signed into law on November 25, 2019, as Public Law 116-71. It directs the Treasury to mint and issue up to 400,000 $1 silver coins in 2020 to commemorate the 19th Amendment's ratification. The funding mechanism involves surcharges from coin sales being paid to the Smithsonian Institution's American Women's History Initiative. There is no authorization or appropriation of federal funds—the program is self-funding through coin sales. No publicly traded companies are directly affected, as the U.S. Mint handles production. The bill has been law for over six years, so no legislative steps remain.
