Rep. Victoria Spartz, an Indiana Republican and the first Ukrainian-born member of Congress, is facing a primary challenge for her seat on Tuesday.
Washington — Spartz was first elected in 2020 and reelected in 2022 by more than 20 points against a Democratic opponent. She announced in February of 2023 that she would not seek reelection, saying she needed to spend more time with her family, before reversed her decision a year later.
Goodrich criticized Spartz when she entered the race, saying the district 'can't afford another two years of Victoria Spartz's flip-flopping and putting America last.'For Spartz, the primary will likely be a test of how well her decision last month to oppose around $60 billion in foreign aid for Ukraine plays in her district.
