We sat down with people from across the Phoenix area and asked them what they thought should be done at the border.

There's the wall on the border. Then's there's the wall between us.

Illegal immigration is one of the more divisive issues in Arizona. It has been for years.

President Donald Trump's crackdown on the country's 11 million undocumented immigrants has made the border a national issue again.

On Tuesday night, the country will come face-to-face with Arizona's reality.

Congressmen Ruben Gallego and Raul Grijalva plan to bring the two children of Guadalupe Garcia de Rayos, the Mesa woman who was deported to Mexico three weeks ago, to Trump's State of the Union speech.

We asked Arizonans in Fountain Hills, Phoenix and Tempe how they view the issue, for our "Two Chairs" segment. We set up two chairs and let people sit down and talk to us.

"I don't even want to watch TV anymore. It makes me sick to my stomach. They'll break into your houses, they'll steal your car. You know, they'll go into Mesa and all these suburbs and I am sick of it. These people think they can get everything free. No! We didn't get anything free. Why should they get free? You know, it's wrong."
