The Show regularly checks in with the Editorial Board of the Arizona Republic to talk about the big issues facing the state and the region — featured in the newspaper’s Viewpoints section.

Ten years ago, Gov. Jan Brewer signed SB 1070 into law. The immigration legislation was incredibly controversial and brought negative headlines to Arizona. Much of it was ultimately gutted by the courts.

In a column over the weekend, Brewer wrote about why she signed the bill — as well as other actions she considered highlights of her time in office.

In his weekly appearance, Republic editorial page director Phil Boas spoke with The Show about about how intense and emotional the fight over 1070 was.
