Every action counts in the fight against Project 2025 and the slide towards fascism. Today in Resist Project 2025 we’re featuring November 20, 2024 news and critical calls-to-action.🗽Project 2025 is a dangerous plan to move America from a democracy to a theocratic autocracy.

Together, we can Resist and Stop Project 2025
Here are today’s calls-to-action (timed they take about 5 minutes plus the call time).
Call your member of Congress today (202) 224-3121 and ask them to make public statements denouncing Project 2025’s dangerous plan to move America from a democracy to a theocratic autocracy. Also ask them to Vote NO on H.R. 9495, the deceptively named Stop Terror-Financing and Tax Penalties on American Hostages Act: This bill is a Trojan horse designed to weaponize the office of the Treasury Secretary to silence critics of Trump and MAGA Republicans. It would grant unchecked power to strip nonprofits like the ACLU, the League of Women Voters, and others of their tax-exempt status—without warning, a hearing, or any chance to appeal. This is a direct attack on civil society and must be stopped.

Donald Trump was elected President, but he is not a leader
Allowing leaders to escape the consequences of their actions sends a dangerous message that power, not justice, prevails—ultimately destabilizing society and giving rise to authoritarianism.
History warns us that unchecked power leads to corruption, oppression, and the silencing of our voices, threatening the freedoms we cherish.
Now, more than ever, we need everyone to step up and stand together. Join us and be part of a movement that demands accountability and justice for all. More resources are coming, but today, please join our Not Above the Law Rapid Response Team and sign on to our Freedom Over Fascism pledge.
Statement on Project 2025
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.
Trump’s Project 2025 Will Give Extreme MAGA Republicans Total Control
Donald Trump’s Project 2025 is a blatant power grab that aims to give extreme MAGA Republicans unchecked authority. They plan to use this power to criminalize abortion, undermine the middle class, and dismantle Social Security and Medicare.
Under Trump’s Project 2025, Republicans intend to impose a nationwide abortion ban and create a national registry to monitor women’s pregnancies and miscarriages. They even threaten to imprison doctors and nurses who provide essential care.
If enacted, Project 2025 would also gut the Affordable Care Act, leading to higher healthcare costs for everyone and a loss of protections for pre-existing conditions. Workers would lose their right to overtime pay, and middle-class families would face tax hikes—all while wealthy corporations receive new handouts.
Republicans' Project 2025 includes a detailed plan to dismantle Social Security and Medicare as we know them. This means slashing benefits for seniors and allowing Big Pharma to charge exorbitant prices for medication.
Here is a brief list of the harms Project 2025 would cause to our communities:
Gives the President "Supreme Powers."
Fires 50,000 federal workers and replaces them with loyalists
Militarizes law enforcement
Replaces public education with Christian education
Criminalizes people based on their race, country of origin, religion, sexual orientation, identity, age, pronouns, race, religion, ethnicity, abilities, and the money in their bank account. Exceptions made for the ‘Supreme Leader’ and loyalists.
Ends reproductive freedom
Defunds all affordable housing efforts and shifts to a privatizing model with a rollback of efforts to protect renters and property owners
Dismantles environmental protections
Criminalizes immigrants
Join us to build People Power! Together, we can protect and empower those we love, champion our rights, freedoms, and democracy, hold our leaders accountable to the people's will, and inspire voters to make a meaningful difference.
