Key Proposals of Agenda 47 Explained

Agenda 47 is Donald Trump’s comprehensive policy platform for his 2024 presidential campaign, outlining his proposed actions and priorities if elected as the 47th President of the United States[1]. Here are the key aspects of Agenda 47:

## Overview

Agenda 47 is presented on Trump’s campaign website as a series of videos featuring Trump himself explaining each proposal[1]. The platform covers a wide range of policy areas and is designed to appeal to Republican primary voters and Trump’s base[1].

## Key Policy Proposals

Some of the main policy proposals included in Agenda 47 are:

1. **Immigration and Border Security**:
   – Sealing the border and stopping what Trump calls a “migrant invasion”
   – Carrying out the largest deportation operation in American history[5]

2. **Economy and Energy**:
   – Ending inflation and making America “affordable again”
   – Making the U.S. the dominant energy producer in the world
   – Implementing large tax cuts for workers and eliminating tax on tips[5]

3. **Education**:
   – Focusing on “Knowledge and Skills, Not CRT and Gender Indoctrination”
   – Removing what Trump calls the “left’s ‘equity’ agenda” from classrooms
   – Reinstating the 1776 Commission[1]

4. **Government Reform**:
   – Cutting federal regulations
   – Implementing a regulatory budget to reduce the federal government annually
   – Bringing independent regulatory agencies under Presidential authority[1]

5. **Constitutional Rights**:
   – Defending the Constitution, Bill of Rights, and fundamental freedoms
   – Protecting freedom of speech, religion, and the right to bear arms[5]

6. **Foreign Policy and National Security**:
   – Preventing World War III and restoring peace in Europe and the Middle East
   – Building a missile defense shield over the entire country[5]

## Implementation and Criticism

Many of Agenda 47’s proposals would rely on executive orders and expanded executive power[1]. Some of the plans are legally controversial and may require constitutional amendments[1]. Critics have raised concerns about the platform’s approach to climate change, public health, and its potential impact on inflation[1].

It’s worth noting that while Agenda 47 is Trump’s official campaign platform, it shares many themes and policies with Project 2025, a separate initiative by the Heritage Foundation that aligns closely with Trump’s vision[4].
