community-lost — Contract maintained. $22,500/year for ICE training. 2,000+ petition signatures, 33 local officials opposed — council ignored.

pre-proposal-opposition — ICE officially denies plans; community organizing continues. Strong preemptive opposition.

active-litigation — ACLU filed Gomez Ruiz et al. v. ICE Nov 2025 alleging medical neglect, solitary abuse, near-freezing temps, and no attorney access. Federal court granted preliminary injunction Feb 11, 2026 requiring emergency medical care, specialist access, warm clothing, and a court monitor. Over 1,000 detainees covered. Case continues.

contested — GEO Group opened 700-bed Central Valley Annex in McFarland late April 2026 under a claimed existing intergovernmental agreement, bypassing California's 180-day public notice requirement. No public hearings held. ICE transferred detainees without local permit verification. Advocates had no opportunity to raise concerns before opening. Permit status unconfirmed as of late April 2026.

active-litigation — ACLU SoCal filed Vasquez Perdomo v. Noem July 2025 as a class action challenging military-style ICE raids targeting Latino communities via racial profiling. Lower courts issued injunctions. Supreme Court (Kavanaugh) granted a partial stay. In April 2026, ICE arrested named plaintiff Isaac Villegas in apparent retaliation — LA federal judge ordered his immediate release. Case continues in C.D. Cal.

contested — On May 19, 2026 the Monterey County Board of Supervisors unanimously passed a resolution opposing a suspected federal ICE detention center under construction ~8 miles away at 7240 Holsclaw Road in unincorporated Santa Clara County, east of Gilroy. The county will send opposition letters to state/federal lawmakers, join any litigation by Santa Clara County or the CA DOJ, and review its own zoning laws. Construction (greenhouse demolition, fencing) began in early May 2026; the site is not zoned for a detention center.

contested — Ongoing multi-front fight: city banning ICE from property, congressional oversight blocked, courthouse arrest injunction, ACLU raid challenge

active-litigation — San Diego County sued ICE on March 10, 2026 after federal agents blocked a county public health inspection on February 20, 2026 — the same day Senator Alex Padilla and California state lawmakers were also denied entry despite prior clearance. ICE initially cleared inspectors then reversed upon arrival. The county invokes a 2024 California law granting public health officers authority to inspect private immigration detention. Case pending in federal court. Surrounding the inspection lawsuit is a broader sanctuary-vs-federal conflict: the County's CLEAR ordinance restricting federal-immigration-agent access to county property (Jan 2026); ICE detainee transfers in defiance of county policy (Mar 26, 2026); seven reported rapes at Otay Mesa not being investigated by the Sheriff's office (Mar 24-26, 2026); and ICE/Border Patrol using the County Sheriff's gun range (Apr 21, 2026). Each strand is a separate accountability gap; together they illustrate how sanctuary policies erode at the operational level even when adopted at the policy level.

contested — Board of Supervisors voted 4-1 (Apr 21, 2026) to bar ICE from unauthorized use of county property and directed staff to explore land-use tools to block new detention/enforcement facilities in unincorporated county; separately, a News-Press investigation found the Sheriff's Office undercounted ICE jail arrests by roughly 8x versus state-mandated SB 54 reporting, prompting a June 23, 2026 TRUTH Act forum and partial policy changes, but Sheriff Bill Brown says jail-lobby ICE arrests will continue and won't be tracked.
