Morial Convention Center July 07, 2024 in New Orleans, Louisiana.At least 38 members of Congress signed a letter sent Monday to the president of the Heritage Foundation requesting he meet with lawmakersand release the undisclosed fourth pillar of the project called the “180-Day Playbook.”
Project 2025, a 922-page playbook of controversial policy proposals intended to guide the next conservative administration, has continued to garner attention as the presidential election campaigns of Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump heat up. and appointees have authored or have been connected to the project, including former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Ben Carson and former Acting Secretary of Defense and Special Assistant Christopher Miller.
Its unpublished so-called fourth pillar, the “180-Day Playbook," is described on the Project 2025 website as "a playbook of actions to be taken in the first 180 days of the new administration to bring quick relief to Americans suffering from the Left’s devastating policies." It continued, "If we are wrong about that – if your secret “Fourth Pillar” of Project 2025 is actually a defensible, responsible and constitutional action plan for the first days of a second Trump presidency -- then we hope you will publish it, without edits or redaction. Allow the American people to see it and scrutinize it."
The letter campaign was led by Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., and Congressman Jared Huffman, D-Calif., who founded a congressional task force aimed at putting an end to the hopes laid out in Project 2025.
