Our ruling
In a tweet, Coulter said the Trump administration granted amnesty to “Nearly 100,000 ‘Dreamers.’ ”
Trump assumed office Jan. 20. Data from USCIS shows more than 124,000 people have been approved for DACA from January to March.
Calculations of the total applications approved January through March that only include days Trump has been in office show that, at least, about 98,000 were approved.
Whether the program is amnesty is subject to interpretation. For that reason, we rate Coulter’s claim Mostly True.
