The Yuba Liberation Coalition (YLC) is thrilled to share that the Intergovernmental Services Agreement (IGSA) between ICE and Yuba County Jail will end! This means that ICE will finally cease using Yuba County Jail as a facility to detain individuals in federal immigration proceedings for the first time in twenty-eight years.  This marks an end to the last immigration detention contract with a California county!
