While Trump's figure is correct, context is important. This statistic comes from a 2015 Department of Homeland Security report which concludes: "Over the course of FY 2015, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has improved its ability to target individuals who threaten public safety and national security as demonstrated by the fact that 98 percent of individuals that ICE removed met ICE’s civil immigration enforcement priorities." Per the report: "The Department’s clearer and more refined civil immigration enforcement priorities, which ICE began implementing in FY 2015, placed increased emphasis and focus on the removal of convicted felons and other public safety threats over non-criminals."
Indiana's unemployment rate peaked at 10.9 percent in 2010, then started to fall. Pence became governor in 2013. Since then, it has continued to fall largely in tandem with the national rate, and stood at 5 percent in May. The national unemployment rate was 4.7 percent that month.
