The Arizona Court of Appeals said GOP lawmakers cannot stop local governments from requiring private employers give their workers more benefits than state law mandates.

The case deals with a law passed in the wake of voters approving a higher state minimum wage, which also requires paid personal leave for employees.

To talk about the ruling, Howard Fischer of Capitol Media Services joined The Show.
