Now we’re going to check in with the Editorial Board of the Arizona Republic. It’s a regular segment where we talk about the big issues facing the state and the region featured in the newspaper’s Viewpoints section.

Sen. John McCain hasn’t been back to Washington, D.C., in 2018 as he continues to fight glioblastoma — a form of brain cancer.

The Show talked about it with Arizona Republic Editorial Director Phil Boas.
