In this week’s SojoMail, Adam Russell Taylor writes that Jesus confronted abuses of power — but the Heritage Foundation’s proposals would enable them:
If you’ve been following the 2024 U.S. presidential election, you’ve likely heard of Project 2025.
The project, created by the conservative think tank the Heritage Foundation, rose to the top of the headlines once again this week when it was reported that the director of the project, Paul Dans, was stepping down and that the project wouldn’t be drafting any new policy ideas.
This news arrived after former President Donald Trump and his campaign repeatedly tried to distance themselves from the project in increasingly aggressive ways. But what is this project in the first place?
First unveiled in April 2023, and endorsed by more than 100 conservative organizations, Project 2025 is a 922-page document that serves as a to-do list for the next conservative president to accomplish. Activists, journalists, and many religious leaders have been warning the public for months about what they see as some of Project 2025’s more extreme policy proposals and the ways in which the blueprint would push our nation toward autocracy and Christian nationalism. |
