Immigration officials to remove references to immigrants as 'aliens' in agency’s policy manual

U.S. Citizen and Immigration Services is planning to remove references to immigrants as “aliens” in its policy manual, after the term was inserted under the Trump administration.
The switch comes after in February acting USCIS director Tracy Renaud directed the agency on the semantics of immigration terminology. She said the agency should instead use words like "noncitizen" or "undocumented individual." A USCIS spokesperson said the change, first reported by Buzzfeed, is part of Renaud’s memorandum.More Related News
