Democratic candidate for Arizona governor Fred DuVal says he would support a state law giving civil rights to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender residents.

DuVal, my newsmaker guest on this weekend's "12 News Sunday Square Off," also discusses how he would pay for his economic and education proposals.

The question about LGBT civil rights came up in our discussion of the Legislature's and Gov. Jan Brewer's work this past session, which included the governor's veto of SB 1062. The debate over that bill made clear that LGBT residents have no civil rights under state or federal law.

DuVal faces no credible opposition in his campaign to be the Democratic nominee for governor.
