INDIANAPOLIS — U.S. Congresswoman Victoria Spartz (IN-05) has decided against running for any office in 2024.

Spartz name has been tied to running for the to-be-vacated U.S. Senate seat of Sen. Mike Braun.

In a statement, Spartz said:

"It’s been my honor representing Hoosiers in the Indiana State Senate and U.S. Congress and I appreciate the strong support on the ground. 2024 will mark seven years of holding elected office and over a decade in Republican politics. I won a lot of tough battles for the people and will work hard to win a few more in the next two years. However, being a working mom is tough and I need to spend more time with my two high school girls back home, so I will not run for any office in 2024."
