Relative to Harvey Milk Day.

This Senate Resolution establishes May 22 as Harvey Milk Day to honor the legacy of Harvey Milk, who was the first openly gay man elected to public office in a major U.S. city. The measure recognizes Milk's contributions to LGBTQ+ civil rights, including his work passing anti-discrimination laws and defeating Proposition 6, while also acknowledging his assassination in 1978. By adopting this resolution, the California Legislature formally commemorates Milk's life and impact on the state's history of equality and representation.
