Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee, as an entity of the United States Postal Service, should issue a commemorative stamp in honor of Charity Adams Earley.

Plain-English Summary

This bill is a formal expression of opinion from the House of Representatives, calling on the United States Postal Service (USPS) to create a commemorative postage stamp honoring Charity Adams Earley. The Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee is the group within the USPS that reviews and recommends subjects for commemorative stamps, and this bill urges that committee to consider honoring Earley with one.

Charity Adams Earley was a historic American figure who, during World War II, became the first African American woman to serve as an officer in the Women's Army Corps (WAC). She eventually rose to the rank of lieutenant colonel, making her the highest-ranking African American woman in the military during the war. She led the only battalion of African American women to serve overseas during the conflict.

It is important to note that this type of bill is called a "sense of the House" resolution, meaning it expresses an opinion or sentiment but does not create a law or legally require the USPS to do anything. The Postal Service and its advisory committee would still make the final decision on whether to issue such a stamp.

This bill would primarily be of interest to history enthusiasts, veterans' communities, and those who follow issues of civil rights and women's history. If a stamp were ultimately issued, it would be available to all Americans who purchase postage.
