Vitter to hold town hall in St. Bernard Monday morning

It was an open discussion, but nearly every other questioned centered around the subject of health care, at a town hall meeting Monday.

Sen. David Vitter, R-Louisiana, hosted the event at the St. Bernard Parish council chambers.

He took questions from the audience while flanked by two posters. One showed a map of the health care bureaucracy. The other offered negative statistics on the impact of "Obamacare".

The meeting comes just four days after the Supreme Court upheld key provisions of the health care law. The decision galvanized many Republican voters.

Vitter is one of many Republicans making the rounds of public appearance to try and rally support for repeal efforts. On Sunday, Republican Governor Bobby Jindal appeared on NBC's "Meet the Press" to discuss the Supreme Court ruling.

Vitter said he was the first lawmaker to file a repeal bill after the health care law passed.
