Don't Let Hidden Agendas Change Our Way of Life
Project 2025 will rob Orange County residents of their freedom, opportunities, and services we rely on.
Project 2025 is a plan created by powerful Washington insiders aiming to drastically change the America we know. While it might sound like just another political idea, its effects could hit home—in our jobs, our schools, our healthcare, and our community.
Even here in Orange County, Republican politicians are quietly supporting this agenda while presenting themselves differently to voters. It's important to know what's at stake.
This isn't just about one policy or one election. It's about the direction our community and country are heading. The extreme takeover of the Republican Party means that decisions made in Washington can and will affect us here at home.
Why You Should Care
-
Rising Expenses and Fewer Protections
Higher Prices at the Pump: Project 2025 supports policies that could lead to increased gas prices by reducing regulations on big oil companies.
Job Security: Worker protections might be rolled back, making it easier for companies to cut jobs or reduce wages.
By promoting deregulation, Project 2025 could weaken labor laws that protect fair wages, overtime pay, and safe working conditions. This might make it harder for workers to advocate for their rights and secure stable employment.
-
Project 2025 includes proposals that could lead to the repeal or weakening of the Affordable Care Act. This might result in thousands of New Yorkers losing their health insurance or facing higher medical costs. For those relying on Medicaid or Medicare, potential cuts could limit access to essential healthcare services.
-
Quality education is the foundation of opportunity. The agenda suggests reducing federal involvement in education, which might translate into less funding for public schools.
Project 2025 Would Slash Support for Schools
Funding Cuts: Our local schools might receive less funding, leading to larger class sizes and fewer resources.
Reduced Opportunities: Programs like art, music, and sports could be the first to go.
Every child deserves a quality education. This plan could take that away.
-
Threats to Local Services
Reduced Support for First Responders: Federal funding for local police, firefighters, and emergency services could be slashed.
Increased Risks: Fewer resources might lead to longer response times and strained emergency services.
Our safety and peace of mind are at risk.

Preserving Our Natural Heritage
Our state's natural beauty—from the Hudson River to our lush parks—is a treasure. Project 2025 advocates for deregulation that could weaken the Environmental Protection Agency's ability to enforce clean air and water standards. This could increase pollution levels, impacting public health and the environment.
Why this matters in new york
Even in a traditionally “blue” state like New York, federal policies set the tone and have direct impacts on our daily lives. Extreme Republicans running for office locally may support or be influenced by this agenda. Electing them could enable these harmful policies to gain traction, affecting funding, legal protections, and community well-being in Orange County.
At the state level, endorsement of Project 2025 inspired policies could lead to a massive underinvestment in our districts. The benign neglect of leaders who want to impose their regressive values, increase the cost of living, and eliminate the services we rely on, could lead to devastating consequences in Orange County.
