VA-SEN: GOP state Sen. Reeves launches 2026 US Senate bid, aims to unseat Warner

Virginia state Sen. Bryce Reeves, R-Spotsylvania, launched his campaign Wednesday for the U.S. Senate, setting up a high-stakes 2026 challenge to three-term Democratic Sen. Mark Warner.

Reeves made his announcement on social media, leaning heavily on his background in the military, law enforcement and the General Assembly.

“I’ll never back down when it comes to protecting Virginia,” Reeves wrote. “From the Army to walking the streets as a cop to the State Senate, I have always put our families first. Now I am running for U.S. Senate to protect our way of life and secure a stronger future.”

Reeves could not immediately be reached by phone Wednesday.
