News coverage of ICE's 287(g) program in Colorado

Updated July 27, 2026

Colorado continues to strictly limit local law enforcement cooperation with federal immigration authorities, successfully defeating a federal lawsuit aimed at dismantling the state's sanctuary policies. The persistent friction has led major jurisdictions like Denver to formalize non-cooperation directives and actively shield residents from federal operations, even as civil rights groups pressure rural sheriffs accused of bypassing state laws to assist ICE.
