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 Tennessee

Updated October 10, 2026

Tennessee’s partnership with ICE through the 287(g) program expanded sharply in 2026, with ICE reporting 120 state and local partners and more than 1,300 arrests by participating agencies since January 2025. A state law requires county sheriff’s offices to sign 287(g) agreements by January 1, 2027, while new local authority, joint operations and legal challenges have made immigration enforcement a broader function of Tennessee policing.
