194. How Project 2025 Will Affect Women, LGBTQIA+, Abortion Rights, and More with Journalist Amanda Becker
Today's episode is an important one, and the contents will affect every woman you know. I chatted with Amanda Becker \u2014 a seasoned journalist who has covered national politics for nearly two decades \u2014 about the unprecedented nature of our current political scene.\nWe took a critical look at Project 2025 by the Heritage Foundation, a plan proposing significant changes to LGBTQ rights, gender policies, reproductive rights, and education. We broke down who's behind it and what it could mean for healthcare, labor policies, and American families. This isn\u2019t just about politics; this is about the power of grassroots democracy and the importance of civic engagement. We share practical advice on how you can get involved and make your voice heard. Plus, we include powerful stories about reproductive healthcare and community organizing that I think will resonate with you. So, if you're ready to be informed and inspired, this is an episode you won't want to miss.\nRead transcripts, learn more about our guests and sponsors, and get more resources at https://herfirst100k.com/financial-feminist-show-notes/194-how-project-2025-will-affect-women-lgbtqia-abortion-rights-and-more-with-journalist-amanda-becker/\n\nAmanda\u2019s links & additional resources:\nGet Amanda\u2019s book: YOU MUST STAND UP, The Fight for Abortion Rights in Post-Dobbs America\n\nProject 2025 and its affect on women\u2014see article: https://19thnews.org/2024/07/project-2025-women-education-lgbtq-workforce\n\nAre you registered to vote? https://vote.org/\n\nNot sure where to start on your financial journey?
