Analysis Summary:

Detailed Analysis:
- Claim: A Biden-era parole program, known as CHNV, temporarily protected roughly 532,000 Cubans, Nicaraguans, Haitians and Venezuelans from the risk of deportation.
- Verification Source #4: Source 4 mentions that the Trump administration attempted to strip discretionary protections and revoke parole after losing cases, which provides context about potential changes in immigration policy affecting protected status.
- Assessment: Partially accurate but requires more context.
