Fighting Project 2025

The local community discusses Project 2025

With the release of the Project 2025 Mandate, it's been determined that P25 is one of the biggest threats to our American democracy this election. The over 900+ page document needed to be scrutinized and examined to see exactly what was that threat. So far, the Chemung County Democratic Committee (CCDC) has engaged in 2 local community discussions, where the public was invited to come and openly discuss the agenda. The items below are what have been uncovered so far. We hope the information provided below helps you to discover for yourself the steps others will take to curtail your freedom, and how they intend to destroy our democratic government.

At the request of attendees to the community discussions, we've duplicated the PowerPoint presentations, where possible. Some presentations were given orally without visuals and were not recorded, so they could not be replicated here.

Who is Prime Minister Viktor Orbán? Hungary is a warning of what could happen when a ruthless, anti-minority populist backed by a major political party is allowed to govern unchecked. Americans need to pay attention. Orban's playbook mirror's that of the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025. How democracy died in Hungary, and why soft fascism is a threat to America.
