The Justice Department has launched an investigation into Des Moines Public Schools for race-based employment practices following the arrest of Superintendent Ian Roberts by ICE. It has been revealed that Roberts, who frequently claimed to hold a doctoral degree, did not actually possess it. Furthermore, Roberts, who is not a U.S. citizen, has been placed on unpaid leave and is contesting his deportation order. The situation has ignited protests among students and raised questions about voter registration, as records suggest that Roberts may have been registered to vote despite his immigration status. As the community rallies around the former superintendent, Iowa officials have revoked his education license due to his illegal status in the country.
