Mike Mullin

Mike is passionate about a lot of things, and it’s one reason he is such a good Delegate for the 93rd District of Virginia. In Mike’s first year as a legislator, he passed four bills — more than any other freshman legislator in the House of Delegates that year. He served on the Counties, Cities and Towns Committee and the Courts of Justice Committee. In his first year, he was most proud of his bill to ensure that people who commit domestic violence aren’t eligible for “first offender status” if they have committed other violent felonies. “This bill could help stop the cycle of violence and protect women and children,” he says. “It just might save the life of somebody you love.”

He excels at turning his experiences and understanding of the communities of the Peninsula into real results for his constituents. In his second year as a legislator, he was reappointed to the Counties, Cities, and Towns Committee and the Courts of Justice Committee, and newly appointed to the Commerce and Labor Committee. He again passed four bills, highlighted by a new law to protect victims of human trafficking. Delegate Mullin served on the House Select Committee on School Safety throughout 2018. In the 2019 Legislative Session, Delegate Mullin passed ten pieces of legislation and continues to be a leader in the General Assembly.

When Mike isn’t in Richmond in session in the House of Delegates, he is a private practice attorney and resident of Newport News. He came to the Peninsula as a 17-year-old college freshman at Christopher Newport University and loved the city so much he wanted to raise his family here, so he returned after earning his law degree from The Catholic University.
