The same way all other currency is distributed. It's sent to the Federal Reserve district for which it was printed and then distributed through the banking network.

Where on a 2 bill is the mint mark?
There is no mint mark on currency because paper money isn't printed at the U.S. Mint. It's printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, either in Washington DC or Fort Worth, TX. The Fort Worth facility opened in 1991, so anything before that was printed in DC. For modern bills, to determine where they were printed, look near the edge for a small letter and number, such as FW E 228 or G 78. These numbers indicate the plate position of the bill during printing. If it has the FW, it means Fort Worth.
