Navy veteran Hung Cao, a Republican who lost a closer-than-expected race for a US House seat in Virginia last year, has formally announced a challenge to Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine
“We are losing our country,” Cao said in an announcement video. “I still believe America can be the land of opportunity. I have an obligation to fight back against those who want to control our lives and disrupt our families.
