PROSPERITY, S.C. - Oct 20, 2025 - As Project 2025 pushes an agenda of centralized authority and top-down control, Navy veteran and historic preservation leader Michael Bedenbaugh issues a sharp rebuke in his urgent new book, Reviving Our Republic: 95 Theses for the Future of America. His message: America's survival depends on a citizen-led revolution of accountability - what he calls "Project 2026."

"We have serious issues with the nation on how we govern ourselves, which in turn affects which political leaders get elevated and which policies are enacted," Bedenbaugh said. "Instead of giving more power to the executive, which Project 2025 does, my book sees those same problems but returns us to the foundational principles that built this nation."

Reviving Our Republic draws on the spirit of Martin Luther's Ninety-five Theses to demand sweeping reform before America's 250th birthday. With 40 actionable proposals, Bedenbaugh offers a bold blueprint to curb corruption, restore balance between federal and local power, and return government to the hands of the people.

Grounded in lessons across history from Washington's Farewell Address to the Citizens United decision of 2010 that enabled the influence of corporations on policy, Reviving Our Republic is a fresh approach to fostering a more responsive, accountable government.

In this blend of practical experience and scholarly insight, readers will learn:

- Proposals to reform the electoral system, including methods that ensure broader voter consensus in elections and changes to the Electoral College - Strategies to curb corporate influence in politics and strengthen individual liberty, and to give voice to a wider range of perspectives - A plan to restore the balance between federal and local powers, reviving true federalism in our government - Methods to ensure fiscally responsible governance and address the national debt crisis - Ways to realign foreign policy with the constitutional vision of limiting foreign entanglements

Written with concerned voters, community leaders, and students of politics, history and economics in mind, Reviving Our Republic offers a revolutionary approach to reform that Bedenbaugh hopes will inspire America's citizens to engage in a path forward guided by shared principles and responsibility.

"Restoring our Republic is not optional - it's essential for America's survival," Bedenbaugh said. "This is a turning point in our history. Either we choose the hard work of responsible citizenship now, or we allow division and corruption to decide our future for us. The time to act is today."
