“1st Viet/American legislator to congress”. Not so. There is a Republican from new Orleans who is the first. By the way, he was the only Republican to vote for the first House version of health Car. He finally voted No on the final version. His district is predominately black (Formerly held by guy who got caught with cash in his freezer) and will have a hard time holding seat in November.
