Mullis also supports this. All senators in the GOP leadership do, including Senate President Butch Miller, a candidate for lieutenant governor.
Some lawmakers say voters have complained about the way race is addressed in schools. Critics of the legislation claim that politicians are fabricating an issue to excite supportive voters and get them to the polls this election year.
