The State Policy Responses to COVID-19 (SPRC19) project will include the date of declaration and the effective date for every state's actions on each of over 150 distinct policies (exective order, bills, etc.) that states have adopted in response to the pandemic. We are recording dates for initial adoption of these policies, along with dates for extensions, changes in scope, repeal, and expiration. We are also collecting data from governor's and state legislators' Twitter accounts to archive communication and information sharing via that medium.

Data and outputs from our State Policy Innovation and Diffusion Database, a prior project that includes state policy adoption dates for over 700 policies can be viewed at its Dataverse (https://dataverse.harvard.edu/dataverse/spid) or in a its companion publication (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/psj.12357).
