BOSTON The former head of the state s Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing has sued the Baker administration in federal court, claiming he was instructed to apologize in the wake of a report about racist behavior at his college fraternity, then terminated because it was no longer politically correct to employ him.
Former Commissioner Steven Florio allegedly told staff that he wore robes similar to those of the Ku Klux Klan and made an apparent Nazi salute while a member of Gallaudet University s Kappa Gamma Fraternity, The Boston Globe reported in July.
Following the allegations, Florio reportedly apologized during a staff meeting, and he now says those remarks were drafted, edited and approved by his superiors, according to the lawsuit.
