AI Summary

This resolution expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that the Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee, a part of the United States Postal Service (USPS), should issue a commemorative postage stamp to honor Charity Adams Earley. The resolution highlights her significant achievements, including being the first Black officer in the Women's Army Corps (WAC) during a time of segregation, leading the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion which efficiently cleared mail backlogs in Europe during World War II, and her subsequent career in education and community leadership. The committee's role is to advise the Postmaster General on stamp selections, and this resolution is a formal recommendation from the House to recognize Earley's pioneering service and contributions.
