"Immigrant" infers permanent residency (i.e. green card) and shouldn't be used for all admissions (e.g., tourists aren't immigrants). "Migrants" seems to be a way for media to avoid the accurate, but not AP-supported, "illegal aliens" without inferring a permanent legal status. https://t.co/2wbUCCxEJv
