The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency is ramping up its recruitment efforts with a goal of hiring 10,000 new agents by 2026. This push includes offering $50,000 signing bonuses and removing age restrictions for recruits, leading to a surge in applications, with reports indicating over 100,000 submissions. Training facilities in Georgia are actively preparing candidates to meet the deportation enforcement goals set during the Trump administration. Critics have raised concerns over the recruitment methods and the implications of hiring younger agents without an age cap, prompting discussions within local law enforcement and community leaders.
