(AP) — NEW ORLEANS - U.S. Rep. Joseph "Anh" Cao (pictured) is due back in Louisiana this week after a congressional trip that took him to his native Vietnam as well as Cambodia, Laos and Japan.
Cao, a New Orleans Republican who left Vietnam as the U.S. pulled out of the war with the communist North Vietnamese in 1975, spoke of reconciliation with the communist nation. He was elected in 2008 as the first Vietnamese-American in Congress.
He had not visited his home country since 2001.
