Victoria Spartz out!
Indiana Republican will retire.
In February, Rep. Victoria Spartz (R-IN) announced she was no longer interested in Congress. She said it was "too much drama."
“It’s been my honor representing Hoosiers in the Indiana State Senate and U.S. Congress and I appreciate the strong support on the ground. 2024 will mark seven years of holding elected office and over a decade in Republican politics,” Spartz, 44, said in a statement.
“I won a lot of tough battles for the people and will work hard to win a few more in the next two years. However, being a working mom is tough and I need to spend more time with my two high school girls back home, so I will not run for any office in 2024,” she added.
She also felt that her party abandoned allies.
Spartz is an Ukrainian American lawmaker. She was very supportive of President Joe Biden allowing military aid to the Ukrainian and Israeli governments.
On keeping the government open, Spartz voted against it.
She voiced frustration with Mr. Nobody, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA).
Republicans opposed the stopgap measures that are put forward. Spartz was one of 93 members along with two Democratic members opposing the measure.
Her seat is considered safe Republican.
