What it does

This bill would require the United States Postal Service to issue a semipostal stamp featuring a manatee, with proceeds from its sale directed to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for manatee and habitat conservation. The stamp would be available for purchase for at least two years, beginning no later than 12 months after the bill’s enactment. The issuance and sale would follow existing rules under section 416 of title 39 of the U.S. Code, which governs semipostal stamps that raise funds for specific causes. The bill affects the Postal Service, the Fish and Wildlife Service, and the public, who could purchase the stamp to support conservation efforts.
