The Project 2025 authors want to punish and erase same-sex parents.

The Heritage Foundation, the right-wing, religious-based organization responsible for Project 2025, has issued a new report focused on the family, with devastating guidance targeting LGBTQ+ families out of existence.

“The family is the foundation of every healthy society, and, tragically, the American family is on the brink,” the new report’s authors claim. “We are dangerously close to being unable to reverse the decline. Our country will not survive if families continue to crumble at this rate.”

…another aim in the original Project 2025 document is the focus of the new report, titled “Saving America by Saving the Family”: prioritizing heterosexual families and children in government policy.

Similar to their attacks on transgender identity in Project 2025, the group’s goal with the new report is the erasure of LGBTQ+ families. A 29-post thread on the new report details its goals.

[…]

“The LGBTQ agenda… through the Supreme Court of the United States, redefined marriage and severed it in law from its natural biological function and purpose of reproduction,” the report states.

But “Marriage exists to bring a man and a woman together as husband and wife to be father and mother to any children their union produces,” the authors assert. “Mothers are female parents and fathers are male parents.”

By that logic, same-sex parents are excluded from the Heritage Foundation’s definition of family, and the Supreme Court’s decision granting marriage equality in 2015 has contributed to the “crisis” the real American family needs “saving” from.

… A redefined family tax credit would explicitly bar same-sex couples with a requirement that “both the tax-filing adults claiming the credit are the biological parents of the child in question.” That credit is worth $17,670 in 2026.

      Anytime conservatives have a rally, convention, etc Grindr struggles to handle all of the traffic in that city. They’re getting people off, just not women.

        nah they’ve always struck me as the type of guys who want someone to suck them off and then have them finish themselves off. they’re not giving any reacharounds or reciprocating.

    The Heritage Foundation is filled with a bunch of Ernst Röhms who will get theirs eventually. They can secretly be gay all they want until somebody wants them gone lol.
