Shasta County Sheriff's Office attempted ICE immigration enforcement agreement

The Shasta County Sheriff's Office attempted to enter a 287(g) agreement with ICE in May 2025 that would have given local officers immigration enforcement authority, but the process was paused after an ICE official noted it would violate California's Values Act, which prohibits state law enforcement from assisting federal immigration enforcement. The current status of the pending agreement remains unclear, as Sheriff Mike Johnson has not responded to requests for comment. No California law enforcement agencies are documented as having entered such agreements with ICE.
