How participation has grown
Active 287(g) agreements by model, since Dec 2024.
14 agreements.
Experimental (#162). Each line counts active agency–model agreements, so an agency with two models counts once per model. Changes are dated by when they appear in ICE's published list; the Dec 2024 level carries everything signed before then, and the archive has no snapshots between mid-Dec 2024 and early Mar 2025, so the lines run flat there.
News coverage of ICE's 287(g) program in Nebraska
Updated July 27, 2026
Nebraska officials have stepped up the state's involvement in federal immigration enforcement, highlighted by an executive push to establish a new ICE detention center and enter the State Patrol into the 287(g) program. This concerted shift toward closer local cooperation has sparked legislative pushback and mobilized civil rights advocates working to block new agreements.
