Spanberger weighs ending ICE partnerships with local law enforcement

Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger is deciding whether to continue 287(g) agreements that allow local law enforcement to make immigration-related arrests on behalf of ICE.

Spanberger has until midnight Monday to make her decision.
