News coverage of ICE's 287(g) program in Alabama

Updated October 3, 2026

Alabama expanded cooperation between local law enforcement and ICE in 2026, including a 287(g) agreement with the state prison system and six municipal police departments, while one city later withdrew from the program. The record shows both the reach of local-federal immigration enforcement and documented consequences for people stopped by Alabama officers, including transfers to ICE custody and a deportation.
