What is Project 2025 and how does it take aim at democracy? Our Governance team’s Nathaniel Turner does a deep dive into this decades-in-the-making threat — and how philanthropy can respond by funding the accountability field: https://lnkd.in/ejgB5jXZ

When our democratic institutions are being threatened, we will respond. Democracy Fund just published a poignant piece about the impacts Project 2025 may have on our democracy. This blog conveys how Project 2025 would dismantle the very American institutions we’re always fighting for: the system of checks and balances in our federal government's rule of law. However, the accountability field is already responding and preparing for such attacks against our democracy, and Government Accountability Project is named among such coalitions that are already acting to strengthen democratic guardrails against governmental abuses of power. We are dedicated to supporting government employees and contractors—and all people — who disclose abuses of power when they witness them and ensuring that our institutions maintain accountability. Read Democracy Fund’s new blog post now to learn more about the risks Project 2025 poses to our American values: https://lnkd.in/ejgB5jXZ
