A bill to require the United States Postal Service to sell the Alzheimer's semipostal stamp for 6 additional years.

Key Points

• This bill tells the U.S. Postal Service to keep selling a special stamp that raises money for Alzheimer's research. The stamp was first released in 2017 and was set to be taken off the shelves soon. This new plan keeps it available for six more years.
• When you buy this stamp, you pay a bit more than the price of a regular stamp. The extra money is sent to the National Institutes of Health at least twice a year. These funds help scientists study the disease and look for new treatments.
• By passing this law, Congress ensures the stamp stays in post offices even if there are other special stamps being sold. Usually, there are limits on how many of these fundraising stamps can be sold at once, but this bill makes an exception for Alzheimer's research.
