The Project2025 Mandate for Leadership
Actions by the president:
Election Assistance Commission (EAC) Firings
In early July 2026, President Trump fired Democratic Commissioners Thomas Hicks and Ben Hovland, while Republican Commissioner Christy McCormick resigned under pressure. These dismissals, combined with a previous Republican resignation, left the four-member panel completely vacant and unable to take official action. The White House cited a recent Supreme Court ruling granting the president power to remove heads of independent agencies.
Federal Election Commission (FEC) Action
Trump also issued letters removing FEC Chair Ellen Weintraub and other remaining Democratic members from the campaign finance regulatory agency. Weintraub publicly challenged the dismissal, asserting that the removal process for FEC commissioners is legally regulated and cannot be executed unilaterally by the president

Our Work
In Feb 2024 we were contacted by a concerned parent from Cam Heights elementary school in Camarillo, because of racial and hateful speech being used by white students during Black History Month.
On March 7th, 2024 PROJECT50 and THE LBGTQ+ community brought this to the attention of the public and the district at a board meeting.
Although we were a key contributor on accountability for four months, the Pleasant Valley School District superintendent attempted to omit our involvement in her presentation to the board.
