"Everything You Need to Know About Project 2025's Plan for the EPA"

"The details of Project 2025 plans on climate, and for the EPA."

"If you browse the Internet or watch TV you've probably heard of Project 2025, the blueprint for a second Trump presidency, mapped out by a coalition of 100 conservative think tanks, spearheaded (publicly at least) by the Heritage Foundation, which also had a hand in shaping and staffing the first Trump administration. Nothing written down in the Project 2025 manifesto is new, per se, nor is it new that they've written it down (Heritage put out a similar "Mandate for Leadership" in 2016, gearing up for the first Trump term. For that matter, they've been putting these things out regularly since Reagan.

It is updated, though, and it's handy to have it all written out, side by side, a clear window into what lies behind the door on the right.

One thing that’s important to note is that once again we see that those pushing against climate action are not just aligned with those attacking trans rights, racial justice, labor rights and reproductive rights, but are in the same organizations, being funded by the same universe of backers.

A not-yet exhaustive diagram of the money flowing around Project 2025. Stay tuned for a comprehensive database showing funding, staff connections, and more."
