The Dangers of Project 2025
What is project 2025?
Project 2025 is a 900 page plan and policy proposal formulated by those seeking power who want to overturn the American way of freedom and democracy, and change our government in ways that are difficult to imagine. This plan hurts everyone except the wealthy and powerful. Project 2025 is not just an abuse of power, but it is a plan that will alter our country for generations to come if we don't take action to protect our freedoms.
Thank you to Milwaukee filmmaker Sean Kafer and to Mariah Smith for delivering this important message about Project 2025 and the danger it poses to Wisconsinites' freedoms.
Project 2025 is dangerous for wisconsinites
4 Ways that Project 2025 is Dangerous to Seniors:
-
Reduced Social Security - Project 2025 proposes cutting Social Security by raising the retirement age for roughly 71% of Wisconsin residents. That's 4,199,663 people impacted between the ages of 67 and 69.
-
Reduced Medicare – Project 2025 proposes raising drug costs for 298,750 people in Wisconsin by eliminating out-of-pocket Medicare drug cost limits.
-
Reduced Medicaid – Project 2025 proposes imposing "time limits or lifetime caps on [Medicaid] benefits." In Wisconsin, 595,300 Medicaid enrollees would be at risk of losing coverage.
-
Worsening Health Care – Project 2025 proposes repealing the Affordable Care Act which will allow insurance companies to refuse health care coverage for pre-existing conditions.​
