I am looking for similar Korean and Vietnamese articles. Please let me know, if you see such articles. How about writing one? :)

Under 80-20's leadership, our community has formed a cohesive voice. 50,000 Asian Am. participants will equate a 1,000,000 person participation in the general society, because AsAms are only 1/20 our nation's population.
Asian Am. lawyers volunteered to file amicus brief
80-20 is so proud of these volunteers, whose names will be publicized once the amicus brief is filed.
We are still looking for a lead lawyer with amble experience practicing in the Supreme Court. We know that there are such lions in our legal community. In the Jewish Am. community, the most prominent lawyers compete to perform pro-bono services for their own community.
Army Secretary's office will brief US Senators Carper and Coons Regarding the Danny Chen Case.
o The offices of Senior US Senator of Delaware, Tom Carper, will join US Senator Chris Coons to be briefed by Army Secretary HcHugh's office.
Here is a message from Sen. Carper to S. B. Woo and his senate staff Harlan Geer:
"S.B., I like that idea. Harlan, please follow up with Senator Coons' office and ask that our office be included in the same briefing. Also, please invite Congressman Carney's staff to participate, too. Please reach out, as well, to the Army's congressional liaison and let them know that we want to be included in that briefing. Thanks. Tc"
Senator Caper is a great friend of the Asian Am. community.
o Our Petition to Pres. Obama "crying out for justice for Danny Chen" exceeded our goal of 10,000 petitioners by 20%. We've stopped that petition for now. It may restart if signs of injustice involving the Danny Chen case begin to surface.
