State Senator Mark Leno is trying again to get the State of California to recognize the birthday of Harvey Milk. Last year governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, vetoed the bill saying "I believe his contributions should continue to be recognized at the local level by those who were most impacted by his contributions," let's see if his opinion has changed following an oscar winning film about Harvey Milk.

I am proud to have done exactly that, working with the City and SFMTA to have Muni streetcar no. 1051 (which briefly appeared in the film Milk) dedicated to Harvey last year because he was one of the strongest advocates of public transit ever to sit on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors.
