BALTIMORE — Wednesday would have been the 72nd birthday of the late Maryland congressman Elijah Cummings.

Rep. Kweisi Mfume ,who represents the same district as Cummings did, is proposing a commemorative stamp be made to honor Cummings' legacy.

The United States Postal Service's Citizens’ Stamp Advisory Committee will review the proposal at their next quarterly meeting.

If approved, the stamp could start circulating as soon as 2026.
