As you may have heard, The Heritage Foundation is leading a major initiative called the 2025 Presidential Transition Project. We're already at work to give the next White House the policy recommendations and vetted personnel that it will need.

My office is right next to Paul Dans, who serves Heritage as the director of the 2025 Project. Since I have a front row seat to everything he's working on, I want to directly share some recent highlights with you.

This Tuesday, Paul and his team hosted a working group with the 40 coalition partners who are contributing to Project 2025. Far from being a solo effort by Heritage, we have the best minds from the entire conservative movement coming together to set up the next administration for success.

Part of the effort is teeing up the most important policies that the new White House should enact in its first 180 days. Heritage is coordinating 400+ authors to write a new version of our well-known "Mandate for Leadership,” which will set a vision for conservative policy in America.

One of those experts authoring the Mandate is Rick Dearborn, who was just announced as a Heritage visiting fellow. You can read more about his bio, including his time as President Trump's deputy chief of staff, at this link: https://www.heritage.org/press/rick-dearborn-returns-heritage-visiting-fellow-project-2025.

All that said, you and I know that the right policy ideas will only succeed with the right staffers filling the White House. Another part of the Heritage plan is to build a database of 10,000 vetted and trained personnel who are ready to serve the incoming administration.

This monumental Project 2025 is quite the undertaking! But I'm confident that with reliable supporters like you, Heritage and our partners will have the resources to get it done.

What advice would you give to Paul Dans about the Project 2025? What are the most important things that we should deliver to the next president when he or she takes office? I’ll pass along your input to my colleagues.

Best,

Andrew
