Sponsored By: Representative Beatty, Joyce [D-OH-3]

Introduced

Summary

A commemorative postage stamp honoring Charity Adams Earley would be urged for issue by the United States Postal Service. The resolution asks the Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee to recommend the stamp to the Postmaster General. It highlights Earley as the first Black officer in the Women's Army Corps who rose to lieutenant colonel and led the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion in 1944 to clear mail backlogs in the European Theater. The text also notes her postwar education, the Black Leadership Development Program she founded, her 2002 death, and honors including a Congressional Gold Medal for the 6888th, the 2023 renaming of Fort Lee, and a 2024 VA clinic renaming.
