Arizona facilities are housing 1,654 immigrant children, including 328 who were separated from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border.

The office of Republican Gov. Doug Ducey confirmed the figures Wednesday.

Ducey says he doesn't think children should be separated from their families but he also wants strong border security.

He urged Congress to take action, saying lawmakers have been talking about legislation "for the last decade."

He added: "They haven't been able to get anything done. Now's the time to act."

Load up buses and send them BACK to their country! They have relatives on their soil.

Stop the human trafficking by processing and immediately sending them back!

NO FANCY PLANE RIDE...LOAD UP THE BUS OR BARGES!

I'd load them on a plane and deposit them in Mexico City. Having hoards of minority children, including many mischievous teenagers, running around their capital city might serve as an eye-opener to Mexico's Congress and President. Just a thought.
