Put braille cells on the U.S. currency.

Created by S.M. on May 01, 2013

The U.S. dollars and coins have no accessibility to the visually impaired, and those without assistance are unable to distinguish the value of each bill or coin. Our dollars should be redesigned to include Braille cells somewhere on each, similar to what Canada's money has. In 1990, the "Americans with Disabilities" act was passed. If businesses must adhere to this, the federal government and U.S. Mint should as well.
