MADISON - Donald Trump’s campaign is making a stop in Milwaukee today as part of a “policy tour” to tout his proposals for a second term – which will be headlined by one of the contributors of the extreme Project 2025 agenda that Trump has tried to distance himself from.

Trump’s Project 2025 agenda would give him unprecedented control over Wisconsinites’ daily lives, ban abortion nationwide, threaten access to IVF, and raise taxes by close to $4,000 a year.

Trump might try to run from his own Project 2025 but he can’t hide from the fact that his agenda is completely out of step with Wisconsin values.

The policy blueprint calls for replacing civil service government employees with partisan appointees and eliminating the Department of Education, among other proposals.
