Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., isn’t happy that a Tennessee native, former President Andrew Jackson, is being displaced on the front of the $20 bill.

“United States history is not Andrew Jackson versus Harriet Tubman. It is Andrew Jackson and Harriet Tubman, both heroes of a nation’s work in progress toward great goals,” Alexander said in a statement Wednesday.

“It is unnecessary to diminish Jackson in order to honor Tubman. Jackson was the first common man to be elected president. He fought to save the Union. He defined an American era. He helped found the Democratic Party. And he was a great Tennessean.”
