U.S. Representative Victoria Spartz faced backlash at a town hall in Indiana as she defended sweeping cuts across the federal government. Despite House Speaker Mike Johnson’s warning to Republican lawmakers to avoid such meetings, Spartz proceeded with the event.
She defended the job and program cuts led by Elon Musk, emphasizing the need to stop waste, fraud, and abuse. The meeting in Indianapolis was dominated by an unruly audience shouting about cuts in government services.
Despite attempts to answer questions and calm the crowd, many attendees walked out before the meeting ended. Chants of “do your job” could be heard as the audience left.
Spartz emphasized the need for government efficiency and acknowledged the frustration with Musk’s actions but expressed a desire to stay engaged with constituents.
The meeting, planned for two hours, was marked by disruptions and confrontations, highlighting the discord between lawmakers and voters over government cuts. The outcome of such tensions remains unclear as lawmakers navigate the challenges of implementing budget reductions while facing opposition from their constituents.
