WASHINGTON: Having lost his maiden U.S. Congressional bid in a high profile contest last year to Congressman Mike Honda, Indian-American Ro Khanna is all set to announce his second bid for the U.S. House of Representative from California.
Khanna, 38, who has the backing of some of the top executives of the Silicon Valley, is scheduled to announce his second Congressional bid on May 30, his office said in a statement.
"Khanna will join hundreds of grassroots supporters, elected officials, community leaders and residents of the district in announcing his candidacy for U.S. Congress," a statement said.
In last six months, Khanna has remained an active voice in the district.
