An interaction between a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent and a protester that went viral on social media has sparked fresh debate about federal law enforcement pay, with the ICE agent dismissing the protester's claim of earning $200,000 (around £149.000) a year.
According to the widely shared video, the protester, who identified herself as a physician assistant and claimed a $200,000 salary, was met with scepticism by the ICE officer, who said they earned the same amount — despite having 'only gone to high school'.
