evidence: This is part one in a three-part series about Project 2025, the extremist blueprint for the next Republican president that maps out the permanent reversal of more than 50 years of hard-fought gains for American women and girls. Here’s how it would play out. [...] Project 2025 promotes traditional heterosexual marriage, stigmatizing single parenthood and same-sex spouses, and cutting programs to support single mothers and their children. It directs the next president to develop policies and programs to "maintain a biblically based, social science-reinforced definition of marriage and family." [...] Project 2025 directs the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services to reverse the agency’s focus on equity, "subsidizing single-motherhood, disincentivizing work, and penalizing marriage, replacing such policies with those encouraging marriage, work, motherhood, fatherhood, and nuclear families."
