Denying Citizenship: Immigration Enforcement and Citizenship Rights in the United States
By Emily ryo and Ian Peacock


To report detainer requests for Figure 6, we use data from case records for I-247 forms that the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) at Syracuse University obtained from ICE (trac.syr.edu/phptools/immigration/detain/). We refer to these data as TRAC Detainer Data. According to TRAC (trac.syr.edu/phptools/immigration/detain/about_data), the citizenship information included in the TRAC Detainer Data refer to “the recorded citizenship of the individual.” It is unclear whether this information captures citizenship as reported by the individual or citizenship as verified by ICE.........[Citing TRAC data and reports].
