📢 How We Resist Project 2025—Together
🗽Project 2025 is a dangerous plan to move America from a democracy to a theocratic autocracy. Get the latest news, warnings, and actions to resist authoritarianism.
Together, we can Resist and Stop Project 2025
When leaders escape accountability, it signals that power—not justice—rules, eroding trust, fueling corruption, and opening the door to authoritarianism. Billionaire-backed justices and elites aren’t serving the people—they’re scheming to suppress our voices, strip away our rights, and rule over us. But progress and power to the people is more than an idea; it’s a movement. By standing up, speaking out, and demanding dignity, opportunity, and justice for all, we can build an America that truly lives up to its promise.
🚨 Resist Project 2025 - News
Power to the People Means ICE Out
Power to the people is more than a slogan. It is a promise that government must serve communities, protect human dignity, and remain accountable to the law. Today, that promise is under threat as President Trump’s Department of Homeland Security and ICE operate in ways that many Americans believe are dangerous, unlawful, and deeply out of step with our values.
Across the country, reports of ICE and Customs and Border Protection actions have sparked outrage and fear. Communities describe aggressive raids, the use of tear gas near schools, and deadly encounters that have shaken public trust. The killing of Alex Pretti, Renee Nicole Good, and others alongside the arrests by masked bandits have intensified national concern and helped drive public opinion to a breaking point. Support for the administration’s immigration policies has fallen to historic lows, while a strong majority of Americans say ICE has gone too far and want Congress to impose meaningful reforms and accountability before providing further funding.
As a grassroots movement committed to progress, we at People Power United believe immigration enforcement must respect human dignity, uphold justice, and guarantee real accountability. This moment demands moral clarity and courageous leadership. If power truly belongs to the people, then elected officials must listen when communities say enough is enough. That means Congress must remove ICE and DHS from places where their presence spreads fear rather than safety. It means drawing a clear line: no more funding for agencies that ignore the law, lack accountability, and spread fear in our communities. And it means insisting that accountability is not optional. It is the bare minimum in a democracy governed by law.
Here is what is being offered by Democratic Leaders Schumer and Jeffries for accountability:
Dramatic changes are needed at the Department of Homeland Security before there is a full-year funding bill. That’s why Democrats have proposed comprehensive reform1, including:
Mandatory body cameras
Judicial warrants requirement
No masks
Independent criminal and civil investigations
End roving and lawless patrols
No deportation and detention of U.S. citizens
Explicit prohibition on the excessive use of force
No targeting at sensitive locations like houses of worship, hospitals, polling places, and schools
End racial profiling
Kristi Noem must go
Funding for the Department of Homeland Security expires on Friday and Republicans would rather risk shutting down critical agencies like FEMA, TSA, and the Coast Guard than work with Democrats to rein in ICE’s out-of-control brutality.
Power to the people means choosing dignity over cruelty, care over chaos, and democracy over unchecked force. It means saying clearly and without apology: ICE out of our communities, constitutional rights protected, funding redirected to health and well-being, and accountability restored under the rule of law.

Project 2025: The Authoritarian Plan We Must Stop
Authoritarianism doesn’t happen by accident—it is planned. Project 2025 is that plan.
Backed by billionaire mega-donors and led by the Heritage Foundation and over 100 far-right groups, Project 2025 lays out a 900+ page blueprint to centralize power under the presidency and dismantle democracy from the inside.
It would purge tens of thousands of nonpartisan civil servants and replace them with loyalists, giving the president near-total control over agencies like the DOJ, FBI, and Federal Reserve. It criminalizes dissent, expands militarized policing, and targets immigrants, journalists, LGBTQIA+ people, and political opponents to divide and silence the public.
Project 2025 seeks to ban abortion and contraception, erase LGBTQIA+ protections, dismantle public education, eliminate Medicaid and Medicare, destroy labor and environmental safeguards, suppress voting rights, and impose Christian nationalism—ending the separation of church and state.
This is not a coincidence.
It’s the blueprint.
Fascism thrives when people feel powerless. That’s why people power threatens it.
When we organize, vote, and resist together, we can stop Project 2025—and defend our freedoms, our communities, and our democracy.
✊ The Tools That Project 2025 Can’t Defeat
🌱 Hope
Hope is not naïve—it is strategic. Fascism feeds on despair and fear. Hope fuels imagination, courage, and sustained resistance. It reminds us that a just future is possible—and worth fighting for.
🤝 Respect
Respect dismantles fascism’s core weapon: dehumanization. By choosing dignity and inclusion, we build communities strong enough to resist hate, scapegoating, and division.
🧩 Unity
Authoritarians rule by dividing us. Unity breaks their strategy. When we stand together across differences, we deny fascism the fractures it needs to survive.
🗽The strength of a nation is not its ability to fight wars, but rather by its ability to prevent them. - Gene Roddenberry
