The playbook is 900 pages long and covers a wide range of topics, including abortion, LGBTQ+ rights, gender equality, and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. The plan aims to dismantle the administrative state, ban abortion nationwide, restrict access to birth control, promote heterosexual marriage, and erase LGBTQ+ people from public life. The creators of Project 2025 are Kevin Roberts, the president of The Heritage Foundation, and Russ Vaught, the former head of the Office of Management and Budget in the Trump White House.
