Cast your vote and share your opinion in the comments section.

Congressman Michael Capuano told a crowd at Sunday's Bunker Hill Associates Breakfast that he would be willing to sponsor a bill to make Bunker Hill Day a national event, but he would need to see a swell of local support first.

The Boston Herald posted video from the breakfast, where Capuano told attendees that the Battle of Bunker Hill "says more about America... than almost anything since."

In the Herald article, both City Councilor Sal LaMattina and U.S. Senate Candidate Elizabeth Warren supported Capuano's idea.
