Victoria Spartz (IN-05) issued the following statement on her “NO” vote on the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023: “The fiscal state of our nation: over $30T ($30,000,000,000,000) of current debt, over $100T of obligations, over $6T spent annually with no real budgets, completely unauditable financials, hundreds of billions of improper payments, and a -$1.5T shortfall just in 2023, increasing to a -$2.8T 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?” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T23:55:44Z |
