ICE takes 240 Clark County jail inmates under new 287(g) pact
Mar 11, 2026 · Las Vegas, NV

Immigration and Customs Enforcement has taken at least 240 Clark County Detention Center inmates into custody since a 287(g) agreement with local law enforcement went into effect in late 2025. The agreement allows ICE to issue warrants for inmates and gives agents up to 48 hours to pick them up after release. The ACLU of Nevada challenged the arrangement in a lawsuit, though a judge ruled the organization lacked standing.
