The Fenway Institute released a policy brief outlining the dangers to equality and public health posed by the policies in the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 Presidential Transition Project, and urging Americans to make sure they understand the potential impact to health care quality, equity, and access if the policies are implemented. “Project 2025 articulates a dystopian agenda that would radically weaken the nation’s public health infrastructure, further restrict access to reproductive health care, and criminalize efforts to support LGBTQIA+ youth.”
