The Impact of Project 2025 on LGBTQ Rights

Project 2025 by the Heritage Foundation lays out a comprehensive agenda aimed at legalizing and protecting discrimination against LGBTQ individuals. This initiative seeks to implement policies that restrict the presence of LGBTQ materials in public spaces, particularly in schools and libraries, suggesting a nationwide regression in LGBTQ rights. While the project emphasizes the cultural norm of two biological sexes, it dismisses the existence of intersex individuals and proposes to redefine gender identity based on outdated beliefs. This focus has led to a distancing from the project among many Republican figures, reflecting a growing awareness of its unpopularity even within their own ranks.
