Congratulations to Congressman Ahn "Joseph" Cao! The first Vietnamese-American elected to Congress. A great step forward for Asian Americans. He was the Republican candidate in Louisiana's 2nd congressional district and defeated nine-term Democratic Rep. William Jefferson, whose terms were riddled with corruption and scandal.
