Project 2025 is a 22 million dollar roadmap for the next Trump Administration that uses the full weight of the US government to criminalize pornography," the website states. "This plan was written by over 140 Trump Appointees and endorsed by over 100 Conservative Organizations."

The "Hands Off My Porn" ads will run in the swing states – Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona and Nevada – reportedly targeting younger men who are the biggest consumers of the porn industry, according to the Survey Center on American Life, the New York Times reported.

Pornographic film actor, director, and producer, Siouxsie Q, who is one of the people leading the campaign, told Fox News Digital in a statement that she has "never seen a threat against our community as severe and real as Project 2025."

"Not only will it hurt actors, crew, directors, and more, but it infringes on the rights of our fans to view consenting adults in content created by, and for, adults only," she said. "Our consumers and allies need to know that and know what they're voting on. The people behind Project 2025 are absolutely serious, and if they win, there will be no stopping them."

The "Hands Off My Porn" site outlines the talking points of Project 2025 regarding pornography. Project 2025 states in its official Mandate for Leadership that pornography is the "omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children."

Project 2025 leader stepped down amid criticism from Trump

"It has no claim to First Amendment protection. Its purveyors are child predators and misogynistic exploiters of women," the agenda reads. "Their product is as addictive as any illicit drug and as psychologically destructive as any crime. Pornography should be outlawed."

"The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned. Educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offender," the agenda continues. "And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered."

The Heritage Foundation did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

Democrats repeatedly claimed Trump is tied to the Heritage project, but he says he has not read it and does not support it. In one statement, to distance himself from the proposed agenda, he said: "I disagree with some of the things they’re saying, and some of the things they’re saying are absolutely ridiculous and abysmal" in July.

He reiterated his stance while debating Vice President Kamala Harris, stating: "As you know, and as she knows better than anyone, I have nothing to do with Project 2025. That's out there. I haven't read it. I don't want to read it purposely. I'm not going to read it."
