ICE Offers Insurance to Local Cops | Mobile News

ICE is rolling out a new plan to help local police officers involved in immigration arrests by covering part of their liability insurance costs—up to $250 annually—to shield them from financial fallout if accused of misconduct. Designed to ease the burden on departments hesitant to join 287(g) partnerships, the initiative aims to boost cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. But critics warn it’s another step toward shielding officers from accountability, especially when civil liberties are at risk. ICE is now seeking industry feedback and may hire a contractor to manage outreach, training, and insurance reimbursements as arrests by local partners surge.
