🚨NEW WORKING PAPER🚨 Why are many Latino immigrants *not* naturalizing, learning English, and participating in American politics? We provide new theory and evidence across 3 surveys and an instrumental variables approach to show how migration motives shape immigrant integration. tinyurl.com/3expvu8e

Read Jack and I's APSR article! TLDR: we present theory and causal, externally valid, evidence demonstrating anti-LGBTQ+ violence provokes prosocial attitudes toward LGBTQ people, but this is a fleeting effect due to salience loss, event framing, and countervailing societal heteronormativity

(with apologies that I've posted this a few times before. Now that it's published, expect me to be annoying with it -- but as we wait for SCOTUS to potentially harm what remains of the VRA, understanding what happened last time is very important!)

As we all wait for Callais to come down, our piece showing that Shelby County increased the racial turnout gap in most of the covered parts of the country has cleared the replication check and is incoming at JOP. Gutting the VRA was bad, actually.

This is an important paper at @apsrjournal.bsky.social. It's not exactly surprising that racism undermines effective representation, but it is well and carefully done. Congrats to @markarianga.bsky.social, @jacobhacker.bsky.social, @maclockhart.bsky.social, and Hajnal doi.org/10.1017/S000...

Our new @apsrjournal.bsky.social is out! We study whether policy and congresspeople are more responsive to White Americans than racial minorities, matching individual level opinion to policy outcomes and roll call votes on 134 issues using 500K survey responses from 2016-2022. 1/n

My new @ajpseditor.bsky.social article w/ V. Kogan & Z. Hajnal is now out. We show that Latinos are likelier to run for local office and win in cities that switch to on-cycle elections in CA. Election consolidation improves descriptive representation. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
