THE OFFENSE
Axios published an article that attempted to portray TPS recipients as “legal.”
THE TRUTH
The previous administration allowed millions of illegal aliens to flood the southern border, and enabled them to stay under the guise of temporary protected status. TPS was never meant to grant de-facto amnesty. By claiming that aliens who are in the country under TPS are “legal” Axios is misrepresenting these aliens’ immigration status.
