MADISON, Wis. — Donald Trump’s close involvement with Project 2025 became even clearer this week as one of its contributors, Monica Crowley, stopped in Milwaukee to tout her support for Trump’s agenda.

Project 2025, a 900-page document written by former Trump staffers and MAGA allies as a blueprint for a Trump-Vance Administration, would: ban abortion, raise taxes for middle class families while helping the wealthy few avoid paying what they owe, take away protections for workers, make it harder for senior citizens to retire and afford health care, and would help Big Pharma raise prescription drug prices.

“Donald Trump and his allies’ extremist Project 2025 blueprint would take away Wisconsinites’ freedoms and increase costs for working people and seniors,” said Mike Browne, deputy director of A Better Wisconsin Together. “You have to wonder not only what were they thinking by putting this scheme in writing but also why are they now publicly promoting it?”

In addition to campaigning for Trump in Milwaukee this week, Crowley has also previously said she ‘enthusiastically’ supports Trump and ‘his agenda.’

“As Trump comes to Wisconsin tomorrow and gets ready for next week’s Presidential debate, he might lie about it but there’s no more hiding from his support for Project 2025 and the real harm it would cause Wisconsin’s working people and seniors,” said Browne.
