ICE is rapidly expanding dangerous 287(g) agreements with state and local law enforcement, including 28 active agreements in North Carolina.

287(g) agreements give law enforcement the authority to enforce federal immigration law — a responsibility they normally do not have. These agreements effectively turn state and local officers into ICE agents, fueling deportations, racial profiling, and fear in immigrant communities.

In response, ACLU-NC developed an interactive map that tracks the location and type of each 287(g) agreement active in North Carolina and published an advocacy toolkit to support advocates working to stop the spread of these agreements.

Across North Carolina, communities are organizing, raising awareness, and pushing state and local leaders to reject the expansion of reckless immigration agencies' power. Opposing 287(g) agreements is a critical part of this effort.
