OUR NEXT HYBRID BADGER FORUM

WHAT IS PROJECT 2025 And Why Does it Matter?

If you’ve ever wondered about Project 2025, be sure to join us October 7 at noon for a free hour-long hybrid program. The Heritage Foundation's Mandate for Leadership: Project 2025 is a detailed, 900-page, conservative blueprint for federal policy including the power of the President (as justified by the Unified Executive Theory), Schedule F (dismantling the civil service), international relations, immigration, and school funding, to name a few.

Our speaker, David A. Graham, is the author of The Project and a staff writer for The Atlantic, where he writes The Atlantic Daily newsletter and covers politics, music, and other topics. Hiscoverage of the 2020 presidential election won the Toner Prize for Excellence in National Political Reporting.

Graham distilled the Mandate for Leadership into the New York Times best-seller The Project:How Project 2025 is Reshaping America. It’s meant to be a useful guide for readers of any political persuasion. Graham will identify key provisions and principles of Project 2025 and why they matter in different ways, for both conservatives and liberals.

Preregister to attend in-person or online, and bring your questions.
