Project 2025 is a detailed policy blueprint and personnel recruitment initiative coordinated by The Heritage Foundation in collaboration with more than 100 conservative policy groups, released in 2023 as the "Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise."[1] The document, exceeding 900 pages, proposes sweeping reforms to the executive branch of the U.S. federal government, emphasizing the unitary executive theory to centralize authority under the president, eliminate perceived bureaucratic entrenchment, and advance priorities such as border security, deregulation, school choice, and energy independence.[1]Central to the project is a strategy to replace career civil servants with political appointees aligned with conservative principles, drawing on Schedule F reforms to reclassify thousands of positions for easier removal and accountability to elected leadership.
