Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is struggling to quickly hire 10,000 qualified agents for mass deportations, even as it offers signing bonuses of up to a year's salary.
Why it matters: The agency has received a flood of applications and fast-tracked its training for some recruits. But it's a huge challenge to add 10,000 agents to a force of 6,000, and White House border czar Tom Homan acknowledges a "high fail rate" on physical standards.
