The most directly affected would be any future Presidents of the United States, who would be legally barred from having their images appear on currency while they are alive or in office. This clarifies existing custom, meaning there would be no change to what the public currently sees on money.

Indirectly, government agencies like the U.S. Mint and the Department of the Treasury would be legally bound by this prohibition when designing and issuing new currency. The general public would continue to see only deceased historical figures on their money, maintaining a long-standing tradition.
