EveryLibrary Spreads the Word About Project 2025
The EveryLibrary Institute issued a report on Project 2025, which “is broadly seen as a roadmap for the next Republican administration and has deep implications for libraries across the nation. In its opening sections, the Project 2025 report is filled with allegations of criminal conduct by librarians, publishers, authors, and educators and argues in favor of criminal charges and incarceration.” Project 2025 also “would make public schools even more dangerous for LGBTQIA+ students,” “radically alter programs like Title I funding, which support low-income students,” and more.“Project 2025 simply cannot be made reality,” says John Chrastka, the EveryLibrary Institute’s executive director. “Voters and library proponents must put their full support behind our libraries at this time. Sign the petition, download the report, donate, vote. Project 2025 would be devastating. It’s up to us to stop this from happening.” Stakeholders can read EveryLibrary’s statement on Project 2025, access the full report, and sign the petition.
