OCTOBER meeting
Understanding Project 2025
Thursday, October 17, 2024 7:00–8:30 PM
Moore Center, Ellsworth and via ZoomWith Election Day such a short time away, we are all thinking about what a disaster it would be to have Donald Trump elected again. Our first thoughts focus on all of his shortcomings. However, right behind him are people who would perhaps do even more damage than he would on his own. Near the top of the list is the Heritage Foundation under the leadership of Kevin Roberts. They want to take the country back to a time when the federal government had little ability to separate church and state, exercise authority over public education or control corporations or states’ discriminatory practices. Their goals are spelled out in Project 2025, an over 900-page document that our speaker, Abbie McMillen, has analyzed for us. She will be condensing the material and focusing on what they hope to accomplish. Many of the planks of the Republican platform are exactly the same as Project 2025. Abbie will help us understand the dangers and talk about how truly important it is for us all to get involved now.
This will be a hybrid meeting, hosted both at the Moore Center in Ellsworth and via Zoom. If you would like to attend remotely, please register by noon the day prior to the meeting.
Pre-registration required for Zoom attendance by noon the day before the meeting. You will receive a unique link you will need to use to join the meeting.
