Project 2025
What May Come
For starters, reproductive rights would be eradicated under Project 2025, as it calls for the government to “institutionalize the post-Dobbs environment” through executive orders and regulations that further roll back abortion access, as well as the reversal of FDA approval for abortion drugs mifepristone and misoprostol. It also wants to stop the Department of Health and Human Services from assisting with sex education, to keep lessons on abortions out of schools.
And, it suggests that states should be individually encouraged to defund Planned Parenthood under their respective Medicaid plans. “This isn’t about protecting life,” Hawaii Sen. Mazie Hirono said at a press conference on Project 2025’s implications for women’s health. “This is about power … and the Republicans’ obsession with controlling women’s bodies.”
The sweeping proposal also takes aim at diversity, equity and inclusion efforts here and abroad, and within a host of government entities, including the U.S. Agency for International Development. “[T]he Biden Administration has deformed the agency by treating it as a global platform to pursue, overseas, a divisive political and cultural agenda that promotes abortion, climate extremism, gender radicalism, and interventions against perceived systemic racism,” it reads, before calling for the next POTUS to “issue a directive to cease promotion of the DEI agenda.”
Project 2025 additionally suggests the elimination of the Department of Education, as well as any federal funding or oversights provided to schools; it calls for withholding federal disaster-relief dollars from states that fail to comply with its proposed immigration laws and mandates around sharing citizens’ information; and it calls for the next president to “make the case to the American people that nuclear weapons are the ultimate guarantor of their freedom and prosperity.”

Every year, of course, I am lobbied by people who want the government, therefore, to take an even greater role in their children's life—be it day care, be it pre-school, be it after-school programs, whatever. They clearly want the children raised by the government," Grothman said. "I hope the [White House] press corps picks up on this. And I hope Republican and Democrat leadership put together some sort of plan for January in which we work our way back to where America was in the 1960's."
