Honoring Female Congressional Pioneers Act of 2006

The Honoring Female Congressional Pioneers Act of 2006 would have authorized the U.S. Postal Service to create and sell a special "semipostal" stamp to the public. Proceeds from the sale of these stamps would have been used to fund the acquisition of artwork honoring trailblazing women in government, such as Jeannette Rankin, Shirley Chisholm, and Patsy Mink, for public display. For citizens, this bill offered a voluntary way to contribute to the preservation of political history through the purchase of postage.
