August 8, 2008, SACRAMENTO (LifeSiteNews.com) – California public schools soon will be planning “gay day” celebrations every May 22 unless Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoes the legislation.

Thursday the California Assembly approved AB 2567, which designates May 22 as “Harvey Milk Day.” The 43 to 26 vote occurred on party lines with Democrats for, Republicans against. Earlier this week, AB 2567 passed the California State Senate on another party line vote 22-13 – Democrats for, Republicans against.

The bill will require all public schools to “conduct suitable commemorative exercises” in commemoration of the anti-religious, homosexualist agenda of the late San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk.

According to a Senate analysis of the bill, “This bill requires the Governor to proclaim May 22 as Harvey Milk Day…The designation of a day of significance triggers statutory encouragement for public schools to observe and conduct commemorative exercises suitable to the day.”

“This bad bill will teach impressionable schoolchildren the anti-religious, homosexual-bisexual-transsexual agenda of Harvey Milk,” warned Randy Thomasson, President of Campaign for Children and Families.

“If signed into law, AB 2567 will mean an official day commemorating homosexuality, bisexuality, and transsexuality in California government schools…This will harm children as young as children as young as kindergarten.”

“The Democrats are so cocky, they have no qualms about pushing sexual indoctrination upon children in an election year. For the love of God, parents and their children, we implore Governor Schwarzenegger to veto AB 2567” Thomasson said.
