We fight, We win
You may have heard about “Project 2025,” a comprehensive set of proposals from a conservative Washington think-tank outlining the first 180 days of a second Donald Trump presidency should he defeat President Joe Biden in November.
But have you read the behemoth plan? If you haven't, you really should. I read most of the 922-page document, and honestly, it scares me.
I can confidently say that if put into effect, it has the potential to cause immense harm to minority communities, women of childbearing age, undocumented immigrants, public education, diversity, equity and inclusion programs, unions, and the LGBTQ community.
I started reading Project 2025 about three months ago after my 20-year-old daughter told me about it. She called Project 2025 “depressing,” among a few other harsh words I can’t use here, but I think you get my point.
The document, which was first published last year, is gaining attention for two reasons. First, the upcoming election, with President Joe Biden and Donald Trump in a virtual tie. Second, the Heritage Foundation, a significant sponsor of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee this week, developed the project and is pushing for its implementation.
On Monday, the foundation gathered with RNC delegates and conservative luminaries at the home of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra for a "policy fest" to discuss Project 2025, among other things, and celebrate the news that Ohio Senator J.D. Vance was named Trump's running mate.
According to the Associated Press, Heritage President Kevin Roberts said he’s “good friends” with Vance and that the foundation had been privately rooting for him to be the VP pick. Vance, Roberts said, recognizes that “we have a limited time to pursue policy.”
