287(g) Program
Utah
As of August 21, 2026
Agency Locations
How participation has grown
Active 287(g) agreements by model, since Dec 2024.
19 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 Utah
Updated July 27, 2026
Law enforcement participation in the 287(g) program grew across Utah over the past year, bringing the statewide total to 13 participating agencies. The expansion of local cooperation with federal immigration authorities drew significant public pushback during county commission meetings and sparked transparency concerns as several departments declined to detail their enforcement operations.
