White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on March 6 refuted a Reuters report claiming that the federal government is moving to revoke the temporary immigration status of 240,000 Ukrainians living in the United States.

The report, which cited anonymous sources, states that the decision to revoke their status could come “as soon as April” as part of a broader effort to rescind the temporary legal status of people from other countries living in the United States.
