Original Note:
Federal law prohibits illegal immigrants from purchasing or possessing firearms. The tweet refers to a case where a judge ruled in favor of an undocumented immigrant who was charged with illegally possessing a firearm. However, this is one case and doesn't change federal law. https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-atf-policy-migrants-purchase-firearms-900887427777?hl=en-US
