“Why does it feel like Rep. Ayanna Pressley is the only one”

We’re two weeks out from Election Day, and polling remains too close. We need to remember what’s at stake — and it’s spelled out in the pages of Project 2025.

By now, Project 2025 may feel like a buzzword, but it’s a very, very real threat that we can’t normalize. Project 2025 is a dangerous bucket list of extremist policies that would uproot every government agency and disrupt the lives of everyone who calls this country home. We need to call it like it is: Project 2025 was written by Trump allies for a Trump White House to advance Trump's agenda. And that’s exactly why I keep sounding the alarm about it:

In case you need a refresher, here are some of the lowlights from this plan:

• Banning abortion care across the country;
• Eliminating the Department of Education, civil rights protections, and funding for K-12 schools;
• National book bans in schools and libraries;
• Banning the federal government’s use of words such as “diversity,” “gender,” “reproductive health,” and “abortion”;
• Mass firing of civil servants and replacing them with Trump loyalists.

It’s not an exaggeration: Trump wants to uproot the foundation of our democracy and destroy our government forever.

Project 2025 would enable Trump and Republicans to enact widespread, wholesale policy violence. I’m going to continue sounding the alarm while on the campaign trail, and I can only do this important work with your support. Can you please pitch in $25 or anything you can?

It’s not just Trump — the GOP platform is full of xenophobic, racist, transphobic language and policies aimed at reshaping our society and our federal government to fit their authoritarian agenda.

They’re promising to cut federal funding for schools that dare to teach children about America’s history of racism, about race and gender in general — or “other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political content.” They want to carry out mass deportations of millions of immigrant families, and be allowed to freely discriminate against people based on their sexual orientation.

In the short-term, our top priority is to keep Project 2025 from being enacted, and that means electing Kamala Harris and Tim Walz to the White House. After that, the MAGA movement that created this document will still be within our government. So I’m relying on your support right now to be able to fight back against far-right extremists and their ideology in the House.

If you’re with me against this toxic agenda, then please chip in today to help me hold the line against this kind of MAGA extremism everywhere — now, in 2025, and beyond.

Onward,

Ayanna
