Who is Joseph Cao?
Ánh "Joseph" Quang Cao is an American politician who was the U.S. Representative for Louisiana's 2nd congressional district from 2009 to 2011. He is a member of the Republican Party. In April 2011, Cao announced his candidacy for the office of Attorney General of Louisiana; however, in September 2011 he pulled out of the race, and the incumbent Buddy Caldwell ran unopposed for a second term.
He was the first Vietnamese American to serve in Congress, and the first and thus far only Republican from his New Orleans-based district since 1891.
