HUNG CAO, U.S. Navy Captain (Ret.), Special Operations, Congressional Candidate, VA-10, @HungCaoCongress

• Hung Cao addresses the negative consequences record high inflation will have on the U.S. military’s budget, “Every year when we write the budget, we expect a 2% inflation increase. But this year, right now, we’re at 8.5%…And that in a $700 billion budget, that equates to about $46 billion. And in terms of ships and aircraft, we’re talking about four aircraft carriers or that’s the same as 38 guided missile destroyers or 335 F-35 Joint Strike Fighters.”

• Hung Cao: We have planes that can’t fly and submarines that won’t dive
