Donald Trump is scheduled to speak at the Phoenix Convention Center this evening, for what he promises will be a "major speech" on illegal immigration.

The New York businessman has recently softened his stance on immigration, but it remains to be seen what the crux of his speech will entail. 

Watch the KGUN Facebook feed of the Trump speech below:

After meeting with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto on Wednesday morning, Republican nominee Donald Trump says that both countries must respect the others' right to build a border wall on their soil to stop the movement of people, illegal drugs and weapons.
 
Trump says he and Peña Nieto discussed his call for a border wall during their meeting, but did not talk about Trump's insistence that Mexico pay for it. He says, "that'll be for a later date."
 
 
Trump says that having a secure border is a sovereign right and mutually beneficial. Mexicans have been outraged by the proposal.
