Skye Perryman and her progressive coalition are preparing to fight in court and in the public square against Project 2025 and other foes
Progressive groups are preparing a concerted fightback against Donald Trump and Project 2025, the vast far-right policy plan, sponsored by the Heritage Foundation, which promises slashing reform to all areas of government when the president-elect returns to power next month.
Skye Perryman, chief executive of Democracy Forward, a national legal organization, will help lead that fightback via Democracy 2025, a new coalition of “litigation, advocacy and policy groups” designed “to deploy swift legal defenses” – an effort informed by, but meant to be stronger than, the scramble Trump prompted in 2017, the year Democracy Forward formed.
