Paul Dans, who ran the Heritage Foundation’s controversial 2025 Presidential Transition Project, or Project 2025, is leaving his role in August, according to an internal email sent to staff and a person familiar with the matter.
Dans’ departure does not mean that the project, which has been repeatedly criticized by Democrats as well as Donald Trump, will be closed. Work on Project 2025 — which includes policy and personnel prescriptions for a Republican administration — will continue, according to a person familiar with the project who was granted anonymity to discuss the matter.
However, the person said that Project 2025’s goal was always to have its work completed by the Republican National Convention, which ended at the end of July.
“Friends and patriots, there is a season for everything. We completed what we set out to do, which was to create a unified conservative vision, bringing together more than 110 leading organizations united in the cause of deconstructing the administrative state,” Dans wrote in an email that was shared with POLITICO.
