I prefer to use “migrant community” and “undocumented worker” as the terms are accurate without raising the red flag of illegality which is what sends people over the top on this issue.

Our government won’t be able to implement a plan for legal migrant labor so long as ‘illegal alien’ is the standard term used by law makers and media personalities alike.


Lets be sure to also refer to shoplifters as “undocumented customers” and rapists as “misunderstood lovers”. Carjackers can be called “Hitchhikers” and home invaders “unannounced guests.”
