Former Superman<\/a> actor Dean Cain<\/a> has announced that he plans to join the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In an interview with FOX News<\/a>\u00a0on Wednesday, the ex-Superman star, who is already a qualified police officer, said, \u201cI will be sworn in as an ICE agent asap.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThese brave men and women need someone to stand up for them,\u201d he said, referring to ICE agents tasked with executing U.S. President Donald Trump\u2019s mass deportation<\/a> plan.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the kind of thing where people have to step up, I\u2019m stepping up, hopefully a whole bunch of other former officers, former ICE agents will step up, and we\u2019ll meet those recruitment goals immediately and will help protect this country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis country was built on patriots stepping up, whether it was popular or not, and doing the right thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to ICE\u2019s official recruitment page<\/a>, open deportation officer positions offer a US$105,383 annual salary. Last week, the government body said it had made 1,000 tentative job offers to new agents as part of a hiring surge, with the intention to hire 10,000 in total.<\/p>\n

Agency spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement that the agency had begun sending out job offers.<\/p>\n

\u201cICE has already issued over 1,000 tentative job offers since July 4. Many of these offers were to ICE officers who retired under President Biden because they were frustrated that they were not allowed to do their jobs,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow under President Trump and Secretary (Kristi) Noem, ICE is excited to get back to work to remove rapists, murderers, gang members and pedophiles from our communities.\u201d<\/p>\n
