Project 2025: Mandate for Leadership
Â
Project 2025, also known as the 2025 Presidential Transition Project, is an initiative spearheaded by the Heritage Foundation aimed at preparing for a conservative administration in the United States by January 20, 2025. This project is a comprehensive effort to ensure that the next conservative president has a detailed policy guide, a trained personnel database, and a strategic plan for the first 180 days in office.
Â
Goals and Objectives
The primary goals of Project 2025 are outlined in its flagship document, Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise.
These goals are:
• Restoring the Family: Emphasizing the family as the cornerstone of American life.
• Dismantling the Administrative State: Reducing the size and influence of federal agencies to return self-governance to the people.
• Defending National Sovereignty: Strengthening borders and national security.
• Securing Individual Rights: Protecting freedoms as outlined in the Constitution, framed within a conservative interpretation.
Â
Structure and Components
The project is built on four main pillars:
1. Policy Agenda: A detailed 920-page policy guide that provides specific proposals for every major issue facing the country, drawing from the expertise of hundreds of conservative leaders and former government officials.
2. Personnel Database: A comprehensive database of conservative individuals who could serve in the next administration, ensuring that the right people are in place to implement the policies.
3. Training Programs: The Presidential Administration Academy offers workshops, seminars, and mentorship to prepare candidates for government service.
4. 180-Day Playbook: A strategic plan for actions to be taken in the first 180 days of the new administration to quickly implement conservative policies.
Â
Key Proposals and Recommendations
• Project 2025 includes numerous specific proposals across various sectors of government:
• Government Overhaul: Proposes placing the entire federal bureaucracy under direct presidential control, eliminating job protections for thousands of federal employees, and dismantling agencies like the Department of Education.
• Healthcare: Recommends withdrawing the abortion pill mifepristone from the market, eliminating funding for reproductive health services, and enforcing the Comstock Act against providers of abortion pills.
• Immigration: Advocates for increased border security, mass deportations, and a merit-based immigration system.
• Education: Promotes school choice, parental control over education, and the elimination of terms like "gender" and "diversity" from federal regulations.
• Climate and Energy: Calls for increased fossil fuel production and the elimination of federal funding for renewable energy research.
Â
Conclusion
Project 2025 is a bold and comprehensive effort by the Heritage Foundation and its conservative allies to shape the next Republican administration. By providing a detailed policy guide, a trained personnel pool, and a strategic action plan, the project aims to ensure that conservative policies are effectively implemented from day one of the new administration.
I'm posting this for information purposes. These are the wave tops of Project 2025. It is more extensive than what you read here. My intent is to make sure people understand what is at stake this November.
