NEWARK, NJ Newark School Board President Josephine Garcia issued an apology today after making an inadvertent remark that was picked up by her microphone during a virtual public board meeting Thursday evening.
The remark came as the board prepared to begin the public comment period of the meeting. Here comes the bull , Garcia can be heard saying.
Following the remark, the public comment period carried forward and was neither publicly addressed at the moment nor during the remainder of the meeting’s public session. Although the meeting pressed on, members of the public who heard the comment were left displeased.
