TRUMP’S PROJECT 2025: A DANGEROUS THREAT TO THE LATINO COMMUNITY
Project 2025 is an Extremist Agenda That Puts Latino Families and Our Values at Risk
Washington, D.C. - Trump's hypocrisy toward Latino families knows no bounds. As Election Day nears, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Trump’s Project 2025 isn’t just policy—it’s a dangerous extremist conservative blueprint spearheaded by
senior Trump officials and conservative groups that aim to dismantle our economic security, strip away reproductive rights, and gut Social Security.
Everyone Knows Why Trump is Lying Now
Latino communities are recognizing the truth about Trump’s dangerous agenda: Project 2025 is nothing but a threat to their livelihoods, their families, and their future. Trump is scrambling to win over voters with empty promises, including Latino voters, hoping they’ll ignore his long record of lies and betrayals.
“Donald Trump’s campaign is built on deceit, and Project 2025 is the latest in a long line of dangerous policies designed to hurt Latino communities,” said Chairwoman Linda Sánchez. “While Donald Trump refuses to acknowledge the facts, BOLD will stand against his lies and fight for the future we deserve – one where our economic security, reproductive rights, and Social Security are protected, not threatened.”
The facts speak for themselves. Trump’s Project 2025 will:
1. Bring Economic Devastation: Under Project 2025, Trump is championing policies that would tank our economy, putting Latino families at risk. His tax cuts for the wealthy would come at the expense of hardworking Latinos, increasing income inequality and pushing many into poverty.
❌ LIE: Donald Trump’s platform claims he will cut taxes for workers and eliminate taxes on tips.
✅ TRUTH:
Trump and his advisers have discussed deeper cuts to both individual and corporate tax rates that would build on his failed 2017 tax handout to the wealthy.
Their goal is clear: to cut corporate taxes even more, which would primarily benefit the wealthiest Americans.
2. Attack Reproductive Rights: Project 2025 would effectively ban abortion and enact government surveillance of pregnancy, a move that would devastate as more than half of Latinas are of childbearing age.
❌ LIE: Trump claims that his administration will be great for women and their reproductive rights
✅ TRUTH: You can’t trust his campaign statements, but you can trust his record on abortion. He’s bragged about overturning Roe, he’s tried to defund Planned Parenthood, and he’s said that abortion patients should be punished.
3. Put Social Security at Risk: Trump’s plan threatens to slash Social Security, putting Latino seniors at risk. With 45% of Latinos relying on Social Security for 90% of their income and 38% for all of it, Project 2025 is a direct attack on those who’ve worked hard their whole lives. This is unacceptable.
Latino voters won’t be fooled.
