Friend, Trump has announced plans to nominate Russ Vought to be the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). He’s a Trump loyalist, major Project 2025 architect, Christian nationalist, and generally a threat to our rights, freedoms, and democracy. Sign on to our petition demanding that the Senate reject his nomination! >> Vought identifies as a Christian nationalist. He and his allies want to make all Americans live under their interpretation of “biblical principles.” Christian nationalists seek to take away our freedoms and control our lives based on what we look like, where we come from, how we worship, and whom we love. Our multiracial, religiously diverse democracy is too important to let slip under the control of Christian nationalists. Vought is a key architect of Project 2025. I remember when Trump disavowed the plan during the campaign, but here we are again with him trying to give a Project 2025 designer the power to impose its agenda on the government and on all Americans. Project 2025 calls for dismantling the Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Education. Vought has even worked on plans for Trump to use military force against protesters.[1] These schemes threaten Americans’ lives and well-being, and they undermine our democracy, our fundamental freedoms, and our national values. Tell the Senate: Russ Vought is wrong for OMB! >> Thank you for speaking up to stop this terrifying nomination. Together, we can fight against the confirmation of Trump’s nominees. -Charlie Everett, People For the American Way
