Harris is wrong about Project 2025. Our plan is good for America.

Vice President Kamala Harris in recent months has spent considerable time and energy attacking

, the ************* movement’s plan to curtail the administrative state and put Washington back into the hands of the ********* people.

When asked about the second ************** attempt on former President Donald Trump in a recent interview, the vice president even responded by describing our work as a

.

This attempt to equate policy ideas to an ************** attempt rather than honestly debate the issues is dishonest and dangerous. So, before the vice president raises the temperature even higher, let me set the record straight.

Project 2025 isn’t centered on Donald Trump

Our policy work isn’t about any single presidential candidate, and it never has been. We started our work in the spring of 2022, before

and well before any primary.

Our work also is not unique. Many other think tanks on both sides of the aisle, including the far-left

Finally, our work isn’t new. The Heritage Foundation has produced

every election cycle since Ronald Reagan’s victories in 1980 and 1984.

Now as then, those policies are focused on empowering ********* citizens to achieve the ********* dream, a dream that more and more Americans feel is slipping out of reach.

Opinion: Harris can’t stop lying about Trump and Project 2025

That means our policies are focused on protecting the freedom of Americans to work hard in a steady job. The freedom for Americans to put dinner on the table for their family. And the freedom for Americans to live in a house that they own in a neighborhood where they are safe.

Unfortunately, almost every objective measure indicates that it is much more difficult for Americans to do that now than it was when the Biden-Harris administration entered the White House.

Americans struggle to pay the bills

Opinion: IRS union for Harris? That’s a warning about what her presidency means for taxes.

The White House knows these facts and figures, and millions of Americans know the consequences of this administration’s ********. That’s why, outside of Washington, D.C., and the influence of the mainstream news media, many of our policies are popular with the public.

Other policies we promote, such as dismantling the Department of Education and fighting the ************ industry, are less popular, but we believe that they are no less essential to restore the health of our republic.

Popular or not, the fact that a group of ************* organizations are offering ************* policy solutions shouldn’t be a scandal. It certainly shouldn’t make anyone feel unsafe.

What should be a scandal is that after four years of ******** and months of attacking us, this White House continues to roll out the same tired ideas that have been detrimental to the ********* dream.

What should be a scandal is the vice president’s attempt to
