(1) The Office of Intelligence and Analysis 
(I&A) of the Department of Homeland Security 
plays a critical role in supporting homeland security 
by providing actionable intelligence to Federal, 
State, local, Tribal, and territorial governments and 
private sector entities. 
(2) The Office’s foundational mission is to serve 
as an intelligence component that supports such gov-
ernments and entities by fusing law enforcement and 
intelligence information. 
(3) The Office’s effectiveness depends on the 
mutual flow of information, collaboration, and trust 
between the Department and such governments and 
entities. 
(4) Emerging and evolving threats require a 
proactive approach to intelligence collection, anal-
ysis, and dissemination. 
(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con-
gress that— 
(1) the Office of Intelligence and Analysis of 
the Department of Homeland Security should fully 
execute its statutory role in supporting State, local, 
Tribal, and territorial governments and private sec-
tor entities through actionable, relevant, and timely

learned to prioritize the values of nonviolence and 
peacekeeping from his grandparents’ Quaker faith, 
and would continue to build these values in his life 
as a civil rights movement leader. 
(2) Rustin attended City College of New York, 
where he joined a progressive club that aimed to 
remedy racial issues during turbulent times. His 
time with the club was short lived, but it inspired 
him to join the Fellowship of Reconciliation, an or-
ganization that became a champion for labor rights, 
equality, and world peace. 
(3) His time with the Fellowship of Reconcili-
ation prompted Rustin to become a leader in the 
1947 ‘‘Journey to Reconciliation’’, an event where 
White and Black people across the South rode buses 
together to challenge segregation laws, a precursor 
to the Freedom Rides. 
(4) Rustin was an advisor in Martin Luther 
King, Jr.’s inner circle as he advocated pacifism and 
nonviolence for achieving equal treatment for Afri-
can-Americans. 
(5) Rustin used his brilliant strategic handling 
of the use of aggressive, peaceful action in the civil 
rights movement and throughout his life as an activ-
ist.

(6) His most important role was as the chief or-
ganizer of the March on Washington for Jobs and 
Freedom in 1963, the largest demonstration ever or-
ganized at the time, in which a quarter of a million 
people turned out to demand civil rights for African- 
Americans. 
(7) In the years after the civil rights movement, 
Rustin used his background as a gay man to inspire 
others to advocate for and to achieve LGBTQ+ 
rights. 
(8) Rustin remained a strategist and public 
speaker for workers’ rights movements, including co- 
founding the A. Philip Randolph Institute for Black 
trade union members. 
(9) Rustin committed to promoting social good 
and advocating for the disenfranchised until his 
death in 1987. 
SEC. 3. BAYARD RUSTIN STAMP. 
(a) IN GENERAL.—In order to honor the life and 
work of Bayard Rustin, a leader in the civil rights move-
ment, the Postmaster General shall provide for the
