Seven advocacy organizations are rallying Latino voters against Project 2025, a conservative policy plan with potential impacts on education, healthcare access, reproductive rights, climate change, immigration, and worker rights. A new coalition, “Defendiendo Nuestro Futuro, Latinos Against Project 2025,” plans to educate and mobilize voters in swing states through door-to-door canvassing, phone-banking, and social media efforts. Despite a lack of information in Spanish, TikTok posts garnered millions of views on Project 2025, highlighting concerns about federal education policy changes. Latino groups fear the plan’s support of mass deportation and restrictions on Medicaid and abortion access could disproportionately harm Latino communities. Additionally, policies to limit climate legislation and erode worker protections are also problematic for Hispanic voters. These organizations argue that the plan, supported by conservative groups associated with former President Donald Trump, threatens the future wellbeing of Latino communities. Despite Trump disavowing Project 2025 and focusing on his own campaign platform, Latino voters are urged to consider the potential impacts of conservative policies on their daily lives when casting their ballots. With the upcoming presidential election, these groups stress the importance of voting and ensuring that Latino voices are represented.
