Trump has implemented many Project 2025 proposals, but there’s more he could do. Here’s a breakdown.
Since taking office, President Trump has signed a wave of executive orders that align closely with Project 2025, a detailed conservative blueprint from the Heritage Foundation for governing in a second Trump term. The initiative calls for gutting the federal workforce, rolling back diversity and LGBTQ programs, and ramping up immigration enforcement, among other moves.
Despite claiming during his campaign that he knew nothing about Project 2025, Trump has filled important government roles with people linked to the plan, including Russell Vought, a key architect who now heads the Office of Management and Budget, as well as immigration czar Tom Homan and FCC chairman Brendan Carr. The message is clear: Project 2025 has a seat at the table, and is shaping policy.
Some examples: Trump has signed orders to ban transgender men and women from serving in the armed forces, deploy the military to the southern border, withdraw from the World Health Organization, and eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion programs everywhere in the federal government.
But Project 2025 is a huge plan — 920 pages — and there’s a lot that Trump still could do. Here’s a look at which proposals could possibly be adopted.
