AMERICANS VALUE FREEDOM
(Mr. MOULTON asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. MOULTON. Madam Speaker, a second American Revolution will be
bloodless if the left allows it to be. These are ominous words from the
lead architect of Trump's Project 2025. The Founding Fathers must be
rolling in their graves.
From our earliest days as a Nation, Americans have valued freedom.
Our Constitution enshrines it. As leaders today in the Chamber, we
should all envision a future where Americans have more freedom.
That is not what Trump's Project 2025 envisions. It promises the
opposite: total control. Project 2025 would suffocate the institutions
that keep our government running. It would sabotage the people that
keep our country safe. Cynically, it would grant more freedoms to
billionaires and wealthy corporations.
Healthcare, wages, pensions, education, and insurance benefits could
be affected. The tentacles of Project 2025 would be so far-reaching
into daily life, who knows if it could be reversed.
Trump is trying to hide from Project 2025, but this is simply
Trumpism on an industrial scale. Draconian, partisan government control
and chaos, that is what Project 2025 represents. Let's choose freedom
instead.
