Claim 2: “On the 14th anniversary of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes vowed to keep defending the [Dreamers]”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE

Claim 4: “people seeking permanent residency must first leave the country”
DISPUTED
The evidence shows a direct contradiction. One source mentions officials stating that people seeking permanent residency must leave the country with 'extraordinary' exceptions, while another source (The Times of India) explicitly states that DHS clarified that applicants do NOT need to leave the U.S. while applications are being processed.
