JDCA Special Briefing: Project 2025

July 15, 2024

Dear friends,

Jewish Dems joined other Jewish leaders over the weekend in condemning the shooting at Donald Trump’s rally. We continue to wish a speedy recovery to all those injured and impacted by the incident, and we mourn the loss of innocent life.

President Biden made it clear that “there is no place in America for this kind of violence,” no matter if it is a shooting at a political rally, an attack on members of Congress and their families, or a violent mob attacking the Capitol on January 6.

The events of this past weekend were disturbing. But we must not lose sight of what is at stake in this election, which is only 112 days away. Republicans are planning to take America in a dangerous direction if they win in November. Project 2025 is a road map for Donald Trump and the far-right to gut our system of checks and balances, further restrict access to abortion and reproductive freedoms, remove civil rights protections, and dismantle whole government agencies. It is not a theory — it’s a 900+ page plan for the far-right to take control of our government.

Every American needs to know what Project 2025 is and how it will damage our democracy, economy, and way of life. Join JDCA this week, during the Republican National Convention, to discuss Project 2025’s extreme plans.

Political violence is never the answer, but neither is complacency. Join JDCA’s event this week to better understand the dangers of Project 2025 and help get out the Jewish vote for Democrats who share our values.

Sincerely,

Sam Crystal
Chief of Staff, Jewish Democratic Council of America
