Trump to Hire 20,000 New Deportation Officers

President Donald Trump has signed an executive order directing the Department of Homeland Security to recruit 20,000 additional officers to enforce immigration laws, aiming to triple the current ICE workforce.

This move is part of “Project Homecoming,” a self-deportation initiative offering undocumented migrants a $1,000 stipend and free flights to encourage voluntary departure. The administration plans to deputize local law enforcement and potentially utilize military personnel for support roles in deportation efforts.
