Cain, who starred as the iconic superhero from 1993 to 1997, has since diversified his career with various acting and directing roles. His announcement comes in the wake of ICE's ambitious recruitment campaign, which seeks to hire 10,000 new personnel to bolster its operations, particularly in light of increased deportation activities under the Trump administration.
During his appearance on Fox News, Cain noted the overwhelming response to his earlier recruitment video aimed at attracting former law enforcement officials to join ICE. "I will be sworn in as an ICE agent as soon as possible," he affirmed, adding that his motivation stems from a desire to "help protect" the country and encourage others to follow suit.
The Trump administration has openly declared its intention to ramp up deportations, aiming for a staggering million per year. This drive has been met with significant public backlash, spurring protests across various cities against immigration raids deemed unlawful by critics.
To entice potential recruits, ICE has introduced substantial incentives, including recruitment bonuses up to $50,000 and assistance with student loans. Remarkably, more than 80,000 candidates have already shown interest in the available positions.
ICE, comprised of 20,000 officers and support team members spread over 400 locations nationwide, is now fully equipped to launch this extensive recruitment initiative. The recruitment strategy is underscored by a recent funding boost, resulting from a sweeping spending bill that allocated over $76 billion to ICE, establishing it as the most well-funded federal law enforcement agency in the country.
With the ads evoking phrases similar to World War II recruitment posters, ICE is actively seeking new agents, including deportation officers, attorneys, and criminal investigators, to fulfill the rising demands of maintaining national security and enforcing immigration laws.
