The goals of Project 2025 center on fundamentally reshaping the federal government to align with conservative principles if a Republican wins the presidency in 2024. Key goals include:
Streamlining the Federal Bureaucracy: Reduce the size and scope of federal agencies, eliminate programs deemed unnecessary, and reassign or cut staff where possible. The aim is to make the government leaner and reduce federal influence over local matters.
Increasing Executive Power: Strengthen the president’s authority over federal agencies and limit the influence of career civil servants, particularly in areas like the Department of Justice, the Department of Education, and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Advancing Conservative Policy Agendas: Implement conservative priorities across various sectors, including education reform (with a focus on school choice and curriculum changes), health care, environmental regulation (emphasizing deregulation), and energy policy (favoring fossil fuels over renewable energy mandates).
Filling Government Roles with Conservative Staff: Recruit and train conservative individuals to fill key roles within federal agencies to ensure that policy execution aligns with conservative goals and priorities.
