Project 2025 Is Here

The 920-page document lays out a detailed far-right vision for Trump’s return to the White House — and touches on every aspect of American life.

Donald Trump’s second term will differ from his first in one key aspect: He and his team are prepared to take power.

As opposed to 2016, when Trump won a shock upset over Hillary Clinton, he and his allies have planned for years to retake the White House this January. And this time, they have stacks of policy plans.

None are so thorough as Project 2025, a massive conservative road map for Trump’s second term that represents a far-right wish list for Christian nationalists and corporate interests. The document lays out priorities for every corner of the government, from the Justice Department to the Environmental Protection Agency.

After Vice President Kamala Harris and her campaign seized on Project 2025 to attack Trump during the presidential campaign, Trump distanced himself from the over 900-page policy document. But dozens of former members of his administration contributed to it, and prominent conservative organizations — most notably, the Heritage Foundation — are behind it. Key architects of the project also acknowledged that Trump has quietly supported their work.

Russell Vought, director of the Office of Management and Budget under Trump, told an undercover journalist that Trump is “very supportive of what we do.”
