Immigration and Customs Enforcement recruits are being offered a maximum $50,000 signing bonus, student loan repayment and forgiveness options, and enhanced retirement benefits to join the agency.

ICE is set to get $76.5 billion, nearly 10 times its current annual budget. Some $45 billion will go toward increasing detention capacity. Nearly $30 billion is for hiring 10,000 more staff so the agency can meet its goal of 1 million annual deportations. The White House has said ICE will grow from 20,000 employees to about 30,000.
