AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Immigration Detention Expansion: DHS is seeking contractors to build or expand detention sites in up to 14 locations, including Guantánamo Bay and St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands, as ICE holds more than 60,000 people nationwide. Local Tech & Identity Systems: States and the U.S. Virgin Islands are reviewing DMV-linked voter registration systems after New Jersey found a software flaw tied to IDEMIA that registered thousands of noncitizens. Disaster Recovery Funding Freeze: HUD suspended future disaster recovery funding for the Virgin Islands Housing Finance Authority, citing mismanagement and fraud concerns, triggering a political fight in the territory. Public Safety Staffing: VIPD says it’s operating at about half staffing needs, with 25 homicides recorded in 2026 and only one arrest, raising questions about enforcement coverage. Water Quality Monitoring: DPNR flagged a St. Thomas shoreline as unsafe, while St. Croix results were lost due to lab equipment failure. Connectivity & Media Tech: LTN says it completed 3,000 satellite-to-IP migrations, reaching stations across Alaska, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Space/Travel Comms: Starlink updated Roam rules, grouping the U.S., Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands into one North America region. Business Calling Tech: First Orion launched Mobile Originated Branded Calling with T-Mobile for authenticated branded calls to business customers.
