How participation has grown
Active 287(g) agreements by model, since Dec 2024.
8 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 New York
Updated July 27, 2026
Enforcing a new statewide ban signed earlier this year, the newly established New York Office of Immigrant Trust ordered twelve local law enforcement agencies to terminate their 287(g) partnerships with federal immigration authorities by late August. The directive triggered immediate pushback from several participating jurisdictions, with some local officials pledging to defy the mandate and threatening lawsuits to preserve their immigration enforcement agreements.
