Using mixed-methods data from a large multi-specialty medical group in Los Angeles County, this report examines the role of patient race and ethnicity in the use of in-person and telehealth visits before and after California’s March 2020 stay-at-home order in response to COVID-19.

Using data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey, this data brief assesses how many cisgender Latinas in the United States will be impacted by the Dobbs decision. It also examines the share and growth of Latinas of childbearing age in states with restrictive abortion laws. 

The U.S. Latino population reached 62.5 million in 2021, accounting for 19% of the U.S. population—up from 13% in 2000. Since then, Latinos have been the largest contributor to U.S. population growth, accounting for 54% of the growth.

In this data brief, we quantify the size of the turnout gap between Latinos and other groups in the 2020 election. We illuminate whether the turnout gap between Latino voters and others is due to lower registration rates or to lower mobilization of registered voters.

This report uses American Time Use Survey and Household Pulse Survey microdata to analyze changes in Latinas’ time use throughout the pandemic and understand how caregiving responsibilities continue to affect Latinas’ paid employment.

This report analyzes the representation of Latinos in such appointed positions across California’s executive branch, which includes appointments to the governor’s cabinet leadership and influential state boards and commissions.
