U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is offering up to $50,000 in signing bonuses, student loan assistance, and enhanced retirement benefits to recruit new deportation officers and other personnel as part of the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement push, the BBC reported. 

The recruitment drive, announced July 29, aims to add 10,000 employees, doubling ICE’s current workforce of 20,000 nationwide. Salaries for deportation officers range from $49,739 to $89,528 annually, with potential overtime pay.

The campaign features posters evoking World War II recruitment imagery, with slogans like “America Needs You” and images of President Trump and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who described the effort as a “defining moment in our nation’s history.”

The funding comes from the $165 billion Department of Homeland Security allocation in Trump’s recent tax and spending bill, which included $76 billion for ICE.

The administration plans to increase deportations to one million per year, though roughly 150,000 were carried out in the first six months.
