The ceasefire was extended multiple times over the past week as Hamas released dozens of Israelis and dual-national citizens. The ceasefire extensions raised the possibility that both sides would refrain from resuming the deadliest fighting in the region in years.

The weeklong cease-fire also allowed some desperately needed humanitarian aid into Gaza, where the Health Ministry says 13,300 people have been killed by Israeli airstrikes and thousands more are homeless after their homes were destroyed.

Tubman learned the escape houses and secret routes throughout the Underground Railroad, making her an asset to the Union military during the Civil War, according to the National Women\u2019s History Museum. Tubman also joined the fight for women\u2019s suffrage after the Civil War ended. \n\n\n\nIn 2016, the Obama administration set out to redesign the $20 bill, replacing Andrew Jackson, who enslaved people and both fought Native Americans and forced them to move from their land. The Obama administration was hoping for a release of the new bill in 2020 to mark the centennial anniversary of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote, a right that could at that point be exercised mainly by White women. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe project to get Tubman represented on the currency was delayed during the Trump administration. In the spring of 2019, then-Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said \u201ccounterfeit issues\u201d would make it impossible to unveil Harriet Tubman on the bill by 2020, the deadline set by the Obama administration. Trump, who put Jackson\u2019s portrait in the Oval Office, had criticized changing the image on the bill, saying it was being done out of \u201cpure political correctness.\u201d \n\n\n\nPsaki said that the Biden administration doesn\u2019t have a set deadline for the release of the new bill but that the administration is working on it. \n\n\n\n\u201cWe\u2019re exploring ways to speed up that effort but any specifics would of course come from the Department of Treasury,\u201d said Psaki. \n\n\n\nThe Treasury Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\n","post_title":"Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill: Biden administration says it\u2019s resuming the effort","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"harriet-tubman-20-bill","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2021-01-25 16:21:47","post_modified_gmt":"2021-01-25 22:21:47","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/19thnews.org\/?p=9010","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},"authors":[{"name":"Alexa Mikhail","slug":"alexa-mikhail","taxonomy":"author","description":"Alexa Mikhail is a former reporting fellow for The 19th, covering politics, health and breaking news.","parent":0,"count":29,"filter":"raw","link":"https:\/\/19thnews.org\/author\/alexa-mikhail"}]} The 19th

The temporary cease-fire, which began a week ago, came after weeks of heavy bombardment by Israeli air and ground forces in response to an Oct. 7 Hamas attack on southern Israel that killed 1,200 people, Israel says. Some 240 hostages, including Israelis and a number of foreign workers, were also seized from communities bordering Gaza.

"Hamas turns civilian sites into military targets while using civilians and civilian facilities as a human shield," the military said, issuing what it said was an interactive evacuation map for residents that it says shows safe evacuation areas. However, many Gaza residents have been without electricity or an internet connection for weeks and the map is difficult to navigate on a cell phone.

I'd love to get to Japan and South America. Really it's gonna depend on health and people's availability."

Last month, Coverdale told "Rock Of Nations With Dave Kinchen And Shane McEachern" regarding the possibility of WHITESNAKE resuming its farewell tour in 2024: "It's not really a professional decision. It's literally a health decision. 006ab0faaa
