Project 2025's plan to make Medicare Advantage the default option would give corporations even more power and strip doctors and patients of the freedom to make decisions about what care enrollees can or cannot receive.

Intelligence Community
referred to as the ODNI CIO. By law, and to secure unbiased execution across all of the IC’s 18 elements, the same individual may not serve as ICCIO and ODNI CIO. They are two distinct positions.
Critical areas and IC IT portfolio priorities for the ICCIO include but are not limited to:
• Transparent accounting and allocation of IT investments across the IC, including commercial cloud computing and storage (C2E);
• Recognized and uniform security access for people, systems, and capabilities to enable interoperability across IC elements;
• 5G/6G data transmission and network interoperability, which is vital to IC element operations;
• Artificial intelligence and machine learning; • Quantum cryptography and post-quantum encryption (PQE); and
• Cybersecurity infrastructure where Biden Administration changes have realigned and reassigned management oversight and IT architecture responsibilities to NSA and DHS/CISA, conflicting with ICCIOdelineated roles.
An incoming Administration should appoint the ICCIO as a primary member of the DNI staff along with the ODNI General Counsel, IC Chief Financial Officer, and ODNI Chief Operating Officer.
The President-Elect should require immediate reviews of the progress in implementing post-quantum encryption at a minimum for IC and Defense systems but preferably throughout the government. The President’s National Security Memorandum specifying “the goal of mitigating as much of the quantum risk as is feasible by 2035”*° needs to be revised in light of the magnitude of the threat. Accounting for the investment that will be needed to secure IT systems for national security should be a top priority.
ODNI, CIA, and IC Technology Issues. In recent years, the IC has hada mandate from multiple Administrations to advance technology needs for intelligence—needs that have seen massive changes as a result of such threats as China’s advancements in technology and data infrastructure. Many of the projects coming out of ODNI and CIA’s Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) focus on expensive, AI-driven open-source work, but there is likely duplication of effort in areas where the private sector and entrepreneurs are already making progress.
