Mullin was questioning a witness about whether a book meant to teach children about racism was appropriate for early learning classes. After his remark prompted laughter in the hearing room the senator said he ‘misspoke’ and returned to hectoring his witness, Cheryl Morman, president of the Virginia Alliance for Family Child Care Associations.
