FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: September 26, 2024
People Power United declares Project 2025 is a clear and present danger to our rights, freedoms, democracy, and the rule of law.
In response to recent MAGA shenanigans to enact Project 2025, People Power United - a progressive grassroots group - issued the following statement:
“Project 2025 is a dangerous plan to move America from a democracy to a theocratic autocracy. There is no power like that of the people, and People Power United stands ready to protect our communities against any and all injustices,” said Laurie Woodward García of People Power United.
People Power United will continue to oppose such harm to our community and champion civil rights for all.

Wednesday, September 25, 7:27 PM | By: Alex Isenstadt
AFPI has had a relatively low profile since its founding shortly after the 2020 election — unlike the Heritage Foundation, another organization looking to lay the groundwork for a second Trump presidency. Heritage has aggressively publicized its Project 2025, a set of policy proposals established with an eye toward being a blueprint for a Trump White House. While Democrats have seized on the plan to paint Trump as extreme, the former president has sought to distance himself from the document, though he endorses elements of the plan such as eliminating the Department of Education.

Public Opinion:
NBC News Poll: Project 2025 is widely known and severely unpopular with voters
Wednesday, September 25, 2:14 PM | By: Faith Wardwell
Nearly all voters who are familiar with Project 2025, a conservative policy road map that Vice President Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party have used to criticize former President Donald Trump, view the plan in a negative light, a new NBC News poll shows.
Everyone deserves to vote and thrive,
