Victoria Spartz, the conservative Republican from Indiana who was born in Ukraine, is saying that she does not want to serve on congressional committees, and would rather spend her time helping DOGE in order to ‘save our republic.’
Spartz deserves some praise for this. She sees the 2024 election as a mandate from the people and she wants to deliver on that promise.
If only more Republicans saw things this way. Perhaps we wouldn’t be having a predictable battle about a massive spending bill right now.
Spartz tweeted:
I will stay as a registered Republican but will not sit on committees or participate in the caucus until I see that Republican leadership in Congress is governing.

The full text of her post is:
I will stay as a registered Republican but will not sit on committees or participate in the caucus until I see that Republican leadership in Congress is governing. I do not need to be involved in circuses. I would rather spend more of my time helping @DOGE and @RepThomasMassie to save our Republic , as was mandated by the American people.
Spartz also put out this press release today, text via RedState:
“This election the American people sent a resounding message and mandate to the Republican party to govern – not deliver talking points and messaging bills. Our country is on a fiscal collision course and it will take some courage and structural changes in Congress to challenge the status quo, which is not happening.
“As a serious legislator and finance professional, not a clown, I am not going to continue being involved in circuses. I would rather spend my energy helping President Trump, his appointees and DOGE to deliver on their promises through reconciliation. And I will be working hard doing real work for the people I represent – not presentations in committees for the lobbyists, spectacles and posts on Facebook and X to raise money.
“The swamp will be back in business in four years if not drained through the law. Congress cannot fail President Trump and the American people again.”
Other Republicans could learn a thing or two from Ms. Spartz.
