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

Updated October 6, 2026

New Hampshire’s local police–ICE partnerships expanded enforcement activity in 2026, with local agencies accounting for nearly half of 198 immigration detentions recorded in the state from May through July. State law protects local agencies’ ability to enter 287(g) agreements, while lawsuits and local decisions show continuing disputes over transparency, funding, and the role of police in federal immigration enforcement.
