Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would require the Postmaster General to issue a forever stamp that depicts Bayard Rustin, a civil rights movement leader. A forever stamp covers first-class postage for mail up to one ounce and stays valid even if the postage rate goes up later. The stamp would be issued as soon as practicable after the bill becomes law. The bill also lists findings about Rustin's life, including his role as chief organizer of the 1963 March on Washington and his work for LGBTQ+ and workers' rights.
