I. Data and Survey Instruments
Below are links to original survey instruments that I have helped to field, either as a contributor or a principal investigator. Several of the instruments contain original items designed to assess Latino political attitudes, covering topics on policy preferences, the effects of ethnic filters, attitudes towards the Supreme Court, and the connection between immigration policy and health policy.

II. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Interoperability Reports
As part of the historical shift in immigration enforcement away from the U.S.-Mexico border and towards the interior, the federal government developed a cooperative initiative with local police called the Secure Communities Program. The Secure Communities program is the core operation of all interior-oriented programs directed by the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The Bureau of ICE has a dedicated webpage for Secure Communities where they post updated interoperability reports that contain nation-wide, state-wide, and county-level performance metrics for the Secure Communities Program. However, old reports are not archived on the ICE website. The program is now called the Priority Enforcement Program, however, it retains essentially the same structure and continues to collect the same performance metrics.
