Question about project 2025

What will happen to people with disabilities under project 2025

Answer

The playbook doesn't specifically mention services or programs for disabled people, but the dismantling of important services such as Social Security and Medicare is likely to have a disproportionate effect on this population. The cuts would likely be quite harmful to a demographic that often relies heavily on government aid for daily life, such as groceries and shelter. This playbook will also seek to restrict or eliminate the ability of disabled people to enter the workforce or attend higher education by altering worker safety regulations and the funding of key public programs. This could exacerbate already-existing inequality. "Project 2025" threatens the lives of many disabled people by cutting important services like Medicare and Social Security. It might seem “good” for some people, but we are a country that is for everyone, not just the wealthy and powerful.
