A slightly different version crossposted at Asian Pacific Americans for Progress.
I don't know if this is wasted effort or not, but GOP Congressman Joseph Cao (LA-02) is hosting a townhall tonight. As the most endangered Republican, he's actually said he's leaning towards voting for the Democratic health care bill. Then again, he also teased us about supporting the stimulus package and President Obama's budget before actually voting against it. If you're in the area, please make sure to attend!
Here's the original post:
Just got a reminder from our friend Christina Wadhwani in New Orleans. Her organization, the Mary Queen of Viet Nam Community Development Corporation is hosting a townhall on health care with Republican Congressman Joseph Cao. Cao is a former board member of this wonderful and important community non-profit. Here is the information
The Town Hall Meeting it's hosted by the Congressman's District office and organized by the Mary Queen of Viet Nam Community Development Corporation, which is a 501(c)3 and is non-partisan. MQVN CDC hopes to promote civic engagement among the Vietnamese residents of New Orleans East through hosting this Town Hall on the Health Care debate. All are welcomed to attend.

All are welcomed.
Cao has been teasing the Democrats again on possibly supporting their bill. If you are in the area, please swing by and express your support for the public option.
