The leader of Project 2025, Paul Dans, has made the decision to step down from his position as the head of the Heritage Foundation-led project. This comes at a time when the Donald Trump campaign is facing harsh criticism from the Democratic party.
In a statement released on July 30th, the president of the conservative think tank, Kevin Roberts, announced Dans' departure and his transition to a new role in the ongoing fight for conservative values. Roberts also emphasized the timeline set for Project 2025, which was to conclude its policy drafting after the two party conventions this year.
Dans, who was instrumental in building the project from the ground up, will be greatly missed by the team. Roberts expressed his gratitude for Dans' leadership and dedication to saving America through Project 2025.
As Dans moves on to his new role, the project has become the main target for Democrats in their campaign against Trump. The 900-page document outlining plans for a conservative administration and potential staff members has sparked controversy and criticism.
Roberts proudly spoke about the progress made under Dans' leadership, stating that the project has successfully brought together over 110 prominent conservative organizations, all working towards a unified vision of devolving power from the unelected administrative state and returning it to the people.
He also clarified that Project 2025 was created as a tool for any future administration to use, and not just for Trump's campaign.
However, Democratic vice-presidential nominee Kamala Harris, along with other party members, has openly condemned the project, claiming that it will only take the country backwards. During a rally in Massachusetts, Harris expressed her disbelief at the 900-page document and its detailed plans.
Meanwhile, the Trump campaign has been trying to distance itself from the project, with senior adviser Chris LaCivita even calling it "a pain in the a‑‑." The Republican presidential nominee himself has criticized some of the project's proposals, but it's worth noting that several experts who contributed to it have served in his administration.
Shortly after Dans' departure was announced, Harris' campaign manager, Julie Chavez Rodriguez, warned of the project's potential impact on issues such as abortion, the economy, healthcare, and the environment. Despite Dans' departure, an advisory board member has stated that Project 2025's work will likely continue.
According to Chavez Rodriguez, Project 2025 is on the ballot because Trump is on the ballot. She believes that the project reflects his agenda, which was written by his allies, and will be inflicted on the country if he is re-elected. She also expressed concern over the project's 920-page blueprint being kept hidden from the American people, suggesting that there may be more that Trump and his allies are hiding.
