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.
HRES 1077 is a non-binding resolution expressing the House of Representatives' support for the U.S. Postal Service to honor Lieutenant Colonel Charity Adams Earley with a commemorative stamp. It directly requests the Citizens’ Stamp Advisory Committee (part of the USPS) to recommend such a stamp to the Postmaster General. The resolution highlights Adams Earley’s historic role as the first Black officer in the Women’s Army Corps (WAC), her leadership of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion during WWII, and her post-war advocacy for Black leadership development. This resolution does not create new law or funding but formally urges the USPS to recognize her legacy through a postage stamp.
