If Donald Trump becomes President again, the United States will be unrecognizable to our founding fathers.
Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation's plan for a second Trump presidency, will dismantle our government and undermine democracy. Trump denies knowing anything about it, but it was largely written by former Trump administration officials, and is supported by his running mate. Crucially, Trump's statements align with its principles.
Project 2025 advocates a "unitary executive." The entire federal bureaucracy, including independent agencies, will be controlled by Trump - undermining America's founding principle of "separation of powers," with checks and balances across three equal branches of government.
-- Tens of thousands of government employees will be fired, replaced with pre-vetted Trump loyalists swearing allegiance to him, not the Constitution.
-- The DOJ and FBI will be dismantled, with Trump empowered to persecute his opponents.
-- The Department of Education will be abolished.
-- The Department of Health and Human Services will establish "a biblically based...definition of marriage and family."
-- Climate protections will be gutted. The fossil fuel industry will be prioritized.
The Constitution and Bill of Rights will be meaningless.
-- Protections for LBGTQ+ Americans, legal immigrants and peaceful protestors will be stripped away.
-- Reproductive rights will be abolished: the abortion pill mifepristone will be illegal, and a 150-year-old law will be revived to prevent mailing of contraceptives.
Christian Nationalism underlies it all, rejecting our founding principle of "separation of church and state." This is NOT the government Americans fought and died to protect.
Reject Trump before it's too late.
