Spartz Votes No

Noblesville’s Victoria Spartz, a Republican Congresswoman representing the 5th District in Indiana, voted no on the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023. “The fiscal state of our nation: over $30 trillion of current debt, over $100 trillion of obligations, over $6 trillion spent annually with no real budgets, completely unauditable financials, hundreds of billions of improper payments, and a $1.5 trillion shortfall just in 2023, increasing to a $2.8 trillion annual shortfall by 2033. The so-called Fiscal Responsibility Act punts this issue till 2025 with a total enforceable (FY23-25) effect of less than $200B, and not even a discussion of our path forward. Why would we even bother coming to D.C. – we can do demagoguery from home or perform in a traveling circus instead?”
