It is the correct thing to do, because it is exactly what they are.

A rose by any other name is still a rose. In this case an illegal alien by any other name is still illegal. I like illegal alien. The other name sounds like the perp just forgot his papers and can't find them.

They've been playing ridiculous word games for years. Some are immune to such foolishness

Who'd have thought we'd NEED to "instruct" the Justice Department to use the correct terminology (illegals) for people who are here ILLEGALLY?

Next thing you know they'll be going off all half-cocked instructing them to use the term radical muslim terrorism........

I like it, though I could accept the less-harsh-sounding undocumented democrats.

Time to trash some of this PC speak.

Undocumented sounds like someone who lost his green card, not someone who never had one.
