Legislation to legalize same-sex marriage in California that died last month in the state Assembly will get new life on Tuesday when it goes before a Senate committee.

On June 2, the Assembly defeated the bill by four votes (story) after a quarter of the Democrats in the House voted with Republicans to reject it.

It's author, Assemblymember Mark Leno (D-San Francisco) was undeterred. Leno succeeded in having the legislation attached to a marine bill working its way through the Senate and then back down to the Assembly.
