This bill extends the authority of the U.S. Postal Service to continue issuing special breast cancer research stamps, also known as semipostal stamps. These stamps are sold at a premium price, with the extra revenue going directly to support breast cancer research and prevention efforts. The bill simply extends the expiration date of this stamp program from 2027 to 2037, giving it an additional ten years of authorization. The legislation does not establish new funding amounts or create a separate budget allocation, as the program operates through voluntary consumer purchases of the stamps. This reauthorization allows the Postal Service and breast cancer research organizations to continue this fundraising mechanism without interruption.
