Leave it be. My grandparents would roll over in their graves to hear me say this, but I think Roosevelt, in some small way, should still be honored and remembered.

Although the pictures on coins change from time to time, the tradition is for only deceased people to be pictured on US money. I'm pretty sure (though not completely sure) that no living person has ever been on US coins. If Reagan deserves to eventually be on a coin, it should not be until he has passed away (although, given the way that all the people quoted in support of the bill speak in the past tense (e.g. "was a great american"), perhaps they think he has already died)
