When you read articles like these or hear about places like Texas bussing migrants to other cities, what exactly do they mean by "migrants?"
Someone who enters the country illegally would be detained and deported, and someone who enters on a visa would be sponsored by a family member, employer, school, etc. As far as I know, refugees and asylum seekers make up a small number.
Our immigration system is broken and needlessly difficult, but it does clearly define a person who can live in the country legally. Who are all these people who enter the country and don't run afoul of ICE but also don't have a support system? It feels like there's a legal "gray area" somewhere between illegal and legal immigration.
