now what we've heard from the activists that i've been following this group of migrants from central america all the way to see one is that those individuals that were apprehended were not part of this group we cannot independently identify that we have to remember that at its height there about fifteen hundred individuals that were traveling with this group many of them broke apart from from this group of about one hundred thirty that that are staying out here behind me so it may very well be the case that some members of the migrant group from central america did attempt to cross over illegally but we can't confirm that right now what i can say is that overwhelmingly what we hear from the folks that are staying at this camp here is that they do not want to do anything that is outside of the scope of u.s. law or outside of the scope of international law they want to use the existing asylum laws in the united states so that they can turn themselves in to border authorities and pursue the legal route of applying for political asylum in the united states good to get my well pablo speaking to t

that's communicated down to central america and more comes. it's that flood into a federal system that's created the crisis. again, the goal of policy ought to be to reduce the flow. like secretary chertoff did in brazil. senator heitkamp. senator heitkamp: i don't think i can let that go without some comment. daca, if you say it was a magnet that pulled people because they are so connected, they certainly are connected enough to know that the program's been terminated. so we know that central america presents a unique problem as it relates to unaccompanied minors because of a law that was passed by the united states congress. so the wringing of hands about what is in fact the draw into this country is critically important that we look at this from what is driving the factors below. and you and i have had long conversations about the need to work with the other countries in the region to allow people to refugee in place, to allow people to live with their families in a safe location, somewhere within the region. we're on the verge of having a

so 2014 we had a spike of women and children coming from central america.ou may remember that one. ways we drove the numbers down is we got the mexicans to work with this securing their southern border with central america. longer term, i believe it is income bent upon the mexican government to developing their own system of asylum claims. this is something we talked about in the closing days of the obama administration. i don't know where the effort stand now but the mexican government ought to be in a position consistent with international law to deal with asylum claims on their own when people come from central america into their own borders, the one processed now, secretary, do they get a court date to return? >> yes. neil: if they're in the united states and they are not going to return? >> very often they don't return. neil: i'm sorry, jeff sessions attorney general, is big fan of having them wait in mexico. the pecs cans are fighting that back -- mexicans are fighting that. where do they go? >> they often live with family. some are deenat thatted in

we need to change the law that treats unaccompanied minors from mexico and central america differently. we must reform our asylum policies and ensure the prompt removal of anyone who crosses the border illegally, regardless of where they come from. in response to the recent surge, mainly in south texas, the president deployed thousands of national guard troops to support the efforts of men and women of cbp. i applaud this effort, but sending the national guard to the border is really nothing new. guard troops helped build a fence in operation jump start under president bush and provided much-needed aviation support to supplement cbp's air and marine operations under operation fail fallics during the obama administration. my home state of texas has been leading the way when it comes to securing the border. and for years, we've used the national guard on our border at our state's expense to help ensure the safety of texans, despite years of inaction by previous administrations. congress has recently provided cbp with billions of dollars to invest in technology, area replacement, new leve
