Educating!
Our primary aim is to educate others about the questionable practices of The Heritage Foundation and their strategy to undermine our democracy and freedoms through Project 2025 with dark money and tainted philanthropy.
Politicians not Puppets
Throughout his first term and electoral campaigns, President Donald Trump has acted as a puppet for the Heritage Foundation, allowing its associates to gain influence in our government. This has enabled them to transfer power from federal agencies and undermine checks and balances, all in the interest of benefiting the wealthy through a president who is willing to enact the laws they desire.
Demands
1. Media Accountability & Public Awareness
Demand investigations into think tanks and super PACs that manipulate policy behind the scenes.=
2. Transparency in Political Funding
End Corporate & Billionaire Influence in Politics – Push for strict campaign finance laws to prevent wealthy donors from secretly shaping government policies.
3. Strengthen Democracy & the Rule of Law
Keep the Federal Workforce Independent – Demand protections for nonpartisan government employees against Project 2025’s plan to fire career officials and install loyalists.
