Congress is considering a resolution condemning the policies of Project 2025 as an assault on Americans' fundamental rights and freedoms. Demand Representative Marc Molinaro support H.Res. 1386 to stand against the dangerous policies of Project 2025.
Project 2025 is an undemocratic assault on fundamental American rights and freedoms. It calls for policies that would devastate working families, slash essential entitlement programs, criminalize abortion, and erode our system of checks and balances. Your constituents are calling on you to stand against this dangerous agenda by supporting H.Res. 1386 and joining your colleagues in Congress in opposition of the policies of Project 2025.
Help us stop it.

Project 2025 is an unprecedented and dangerous takeover by MAGA Republicans and wealthy billionaire donors that rolls back Americans’ rights and freedoms, threatens our democracy, and hurts the middle class. Many of Project 2025's policies have already been embraced by Representative Molinaro.

Project 2025
Rep. Molinaro's Record
Giving huge tax breaks to the wealthy and corporations
Project 2025 proposes implementing just two income tax brackets, which would raise taxes on Americans in the current lower brackets and lower taxes on Americans in the upper brackets. Project 2025 would repeal the corporate minimum tax and lower the corporate tax rate from 21% to 18% – resulting in a $500 billion tax cut for corporations and the lowest corporate tax rate in 80 years. (Page 696)
Rep. Molinaro supports legislation to make the Trump tax cuts for the wealthy permanent. Rep. Molinaro co-sponsored the Main Street Tax Certainty Act, which would extend tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy and give tax breaks to big corporations.
Cutting Medicaid benefits
Project 2025 says CMS should “add work requirements” to Medicaid and tell states they “have the ability to adopt work incentives for able-bodied individuals” for Medicaid. (Page 468)
Rep. Molinaro voted for the Default on America Act, which included harsh new work requirements for Medicaid beneficiaries.
Weakening labor unions and worker protections
Project 2025 would gut the National Labor Relations Board, which would help anti-union employers undermine unionization efforts and make it easier for businesses to illegally fire workers. (Page 591)
Rep. Molinaro voted to roll back National Labor Relations Board protections for workers with joint employers. According to a letter to Congress signed by the SEIU, CWA, and other labor groups, Molinaro voted to overturn a rule that helps safeguard “the labor rights of millions of workers in subcontracted employment, ensuring that corporations cannot skirt the law simply by outsourcing responsibility for their workers.”
Allowing the wealthy and corporations to more easily cheat on their taxes
Project 2025 would repeal the Inflation Reduction Act, which provided funding for the IRS to take action against wealthy and corporate tax cheats. The IRS has already collected $1 billion of unpaid taxes from the wealthy due to this funding. (Page 365; Page 699)
Making it harder for low-income households to afford nutritious food
Allowing oil and gas drilling on public lands
Project 2025 would push the Department of the Interior to allow oil and natural gas lease sales “to the maximum extent permitted,” which would allow fossil fuel companies to drill on more public lands and waters, undoing progress made by the current administration to decrease this harmful practice. (Page 523)
Rep. Molinaro voted for the Lower Energy Costs Act, which would require the Bureau of Land Management to hold quarterly auctions for oil and gas leases.
Rep. Molinaro voted for the Default on America Act, which would require the Bureau of Land Management to hold quarterly auctions for oil and gas leases.
Rep. Molinaro voted for H.R. 21, the Strategic Production Response Act, which would limit presidential authority to utilize the Strategic Petroleum Reserve unless the government allows oil and gas companies to drill more on federal lands and waterways.
Raising home energy costs
Rep. Molinaro voted for H.R. 7700, the Stop Unaffordable Dishwasher Standards Act and for H.R. 7637, the Refrigerator Freedom Act, which repealed energy efficiency rules for dishwashers and refrigerators. He also voted for H.R. 6192, the Hands Off Our Home Appliances Act, which would make it more difficult for the Department of Energy to impose energy efficiency standards on home appliances and easier to revoke current ones.
Discriminating against LGBTQ+ people
Project 2025 calls on the DOJ to defend people who discriminate against LGBTQ+ people. (Page 560)
Rep. Molinaro voted for nine FY24 appropriations bills which contained extreme policy riders, which would create a “license to discriminate” against LGBTQ+ people.
Rep. Molinaro voted for five FY25 appropriations bills which contain extreme policy riders, which would create a “license to discriminate” against LGBTQ+ people.
Discriminating against LGBTQ+ students
Project 2025 endorses the “Parents Bill of Rights Act” and would forbid schools and teachers from using a student’s chosen name or pronouns without permission from that student’s parents. Project 2025 would even provide a license to school employees to refuse to use a student’s correct pronouns even with their parents’ support. (Page 345–346)
Project 2025 also criticizes the Biden administration for allowing transgender children to participate in sports that match their gender identity. (Page 333)
Rep. Molinaro voted for the H.R. 5, the “Parents Bill of Rights Act,” which would require schools to contact parents about any accommodations for transgender students, including using their preferred names and pronouns. It also requires schools to notify parents if their policy allows transgender students to participate in sports or use bathrooms that do not correspond with the gender on their birth certificate.
Cutting education for low-income students
Project 2025 would phase out Title I, Part A education grants, which provide funding for lower income school districts within ten years. (Page 350) Phasing out Title I grants would risk 180,000 teacher positions, nearly 6% of the national teacher workforce, and negatively impact 2.8 million students.
Project 2025 would also eventually eliminate the Department of Education. (Page 319)
Rep. Molinaro voted for the FY24 Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies, which would have cut $14.7 billion from Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies, nearly 80% of the program’s 2023 funding. On the whole, the appropriations bill would have cut the Department of Education’s budget by 28% below FY23 levels.
Rolling back Inflation Reduction Act clean energy investments
Project 2025 would repeal the Inflation Reduction Act and rescind funds for renewable energy development. (Page 365)
Rep. Molinaro voted for the Lower Energy Costs Act and for the Default on America Act, both of which would have repealed the climate provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act, which cut home energy costs, reduce emissions, and boost energy efficiency. These bills would increase the cost of energy efficiency upgrades for families and endanger thousands of clean energy jobs.
Since 2023, House Republicans have voted 51 times to repeal the Inflation Reduction Act, either in whole or in part, including through the Lower Energy Costs Act and the Default on America Act.
Blocking efforts to support diversity, equity, and inclusion
Project 2025 would reverse diversity, equity, and inclusion advancements across the federal government. (Page 4-5)
