Fact Sheets: The Harmful Effects of Project 2025, by State
These fact sheets provide insight into how Project 2025 would affect people in states across the country.
Project 2025 is an authoritarian policy playbook to take over the federal government and enact a radical, far-right agenda that strips Americans of their rights and their ability to have a say in government or gain a foothold in the nation’s middle class. The plan consolidates power in the presidency by gutting the civil service; overruling the long-standing independence of government agencies; weaponizing the Department of Justice; and abolishing government agencies, such as the Department of Education, that support the public interest.
Project 2025 and the radical far-right policies it has inspired are a threat to all Americans and would disrupt nearly every aspect of American lives—from health care and education access to taxes and retirement security. These fact sheets provide insight into how this agenda would affect people in states across the country.

I see Arkansas is not on lhis list and its embraced the Poj 2025 principles ever since Sarah Huckleberry took office. Maybe the ones not on the list are like Arkansas
Hey! Let me check on that. . . . I think its a 'work in progress.'![:)](https://thenewstalkers.com/data/media/0/0/jrSmiley_2_smiley_image.png)
Project 2025’s drug pricing agenda calls for repealing the Inflation Reduction Act [IRA], primarily to end the law’s Medicare drug price negotiation provision, which would significantly lower the prices Medicare pays for select drugs and finally counter Big Pharma’s unrestricted power to demand excessive Medicare drug prices. However, Project 2025 treats seniors’ access to affordable drugs as collateral damage. This dangerous agenda prioritizes Big Pharma’s bottom line at the expense of millions of Medicare Part D enrollees who, if Project 2025 is enacted, may once again have to pay more out-of-pocket for the medications they need, impeding both access and affordability.

So, why are only 25 states listed? Does this mean Democrats have already thrown half the country under the bus?
When the Democrats have nothing of their own to talk about, I guess all they can do is continue to push the fear of the boogieman. Isn't that what this entire Project 2025 is?
But hey, if you go to the official Kamala Harris for President website (kamalaharris.com) all you can see is requests to donate money. No economic plans, no security plans, no plans at all.
Discuss: Project 2025 or bust!

Project 2025 Prescription Drug Plan Would Increase Costs for as Many as 18.5 Million Seniors and Others With Medicare*
If Project 2025 is implemented, at least 1.5 million Medicare beneficiaries with high out-of-pocket costs will pay more for prescription drugs next year.
Over the past two years, seniors and other Medicare enrollees have begun to benefit from monumental prescription drug price reforms thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. However, these lifesaving policies are now under threat.
The Heritage Foundation has outlined a sweeping, far-right policy vision to put power—and profits—back in pharmaceutical companies’ hands. Project 2025’s “ Mandate for Leadership: A Conservative Promise ” calls for repealing the Inflation Reduction Act. Similarly, the Republican Study Committee ’ s “ Fiscal Sanity to Save America ” fiscal year 2025 budget proposal calls for a full repeal of the law. If Project 2025 is implemented, millions of Medicare enrollees will see their out-of-pocket costs for prescription drugs rise, reversing much-needed savings generated by the Inflation Reduction Act ’ s Medicare Part D reforms and other provisions.

Across the United States, more than 1.5 million Medicare Part D enrollees —who are among the most vulnerable enrollees with significant health needs—could see their 2025 out-of-pocket costs rise if the $2,000 out-of-pocket cap is repealed. But beyond that, 18.5 million Medicare Part D enrollees could lose much-needed out-of-pocket savings from the Inflation Reduction Act ’ s full package of Medicare Part D redesign elements (as detailed in 1a–f under “What’s at stake in the Inflation Reduction Act”). Some seniors could see an average of nearly $400 in lost drug savings in 2025 alone.
Overall, Medicare Part D enrollees across the nation could lose out on up to $7.4 billion in out-of-pocket savings next year.
