Project 2025: War on Democracy

Updated: Dec 11, 2024

Project 2025 is the Republican Party’s extreme plan to remake the federal government under a Trump Presidency (though he says he has nothing to do with it) . This has gotten a lot of attention within the past year, mainly for what is hoped to be accomplished if this plan is enacted. Some of these include the eradication of affirmative action, the department of education and eliminating life saving care such as abortions. This will in turn affect the already declining quality of education, our ability to get jobs, and our right to receive medical help in situations like an ectopic pregnancy. Now that Donald Trump is in office, this is a very real possibility. What does this all mean for Black Women (and women in general)? This is a breakdown of a few things the republican party is planning to do with project 2025.

Healthcare

One main objectives of this plan is to reduce federal governments spending on healthcare by potentially getting rid of research facilities that provide medication and disease treatment and agencies that run Medicare and Medicaid. This affects our ability to obtain medical devices, contraceptives, and life saving procedures for pregnant women. This even extend to limited access to contraceptives, life saving abortion care. This even extends to access personal products like hair and makeup product.

Why is This important?

Lower income Black people, especially black women, will have a harder time getting treatment for their ailments.

Education

Threats to Religious Freedom

Threats to Overtime pay

Having the goverment take control over women's bodies and health is such a scary thought. I hope it stays a thought and not become reality. It is hard enough to be able to advocate my problems to a doctor AND have them take me seriously. With Roe v. Wade being turned over, it has just been getting worse and worse. I was hoping we would continue to progress as a society, not regress. Your post was very insightful!

As someone who without the Department of Education would not have been able to attend college I can imagine what the implications will be for others if it is disorganized. They're really trying to take us back, hoping it doesn't happen and fighting back as I am able. Thank you for your post!
