“The study by the San Francisco-based independent, nonprofit think tank also found:

U.S.-born men are three times more likely to be incarcerated in state prison than foreign-born men.

Foreign-born people make up 35 percent of California’s adult population and 17 percent of the state prison population.

U.S.-born men ages 18 to 40 are eight times more likely than Mexican men of the same age group to be in a state correctional institute.”*
