How participation has grown
Active 287(g) agreements by model, since Dec 2024.
22 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 Virginia
Updated September 21, 2026
Virginia’s 2026 effort to end or constrain state and local police cooperation with ICE has been checked in court, leaving existing 287(g) agreements in place while the legal challenge proceeds. The ruling preserves local participation in federal immigration enforcement and leaves a divided statewide landscape in which agencies’ cooperation practices and limits remain under public and legal scrutiny.
