A federal judge in California has ruled that hundreds of illegal immigrant women and children in U.S. holding facilities should be released, another apparent setback for President Obamas immigration policy, according to The Los Angeles Times.

The ruling also raises questions about what the administration will do with the estimated 1,700 parents and children at three detention facilities, two in Texas and one in Pennsylvania.

Mexico is under no obligation to accept anyone who is not from Mexico. They will refuse them entry, its their policy.
I believe that they should be released as well.... back in their own country.
