Kevin D. Roberts (born June 24, 1974) is the president of The Heritage Foundation, a conservative political think tank, and its lobbying arm, Heritage Action. Prior to assuming his current role, he was the CEO of another conservative think tank, the Texas Public Policy Foundation.[1] Roberts served as the president of Wyoming Catholic College from 2013 to 2016.[2][3]
Soon after Roberts joined Heritage in December 2021, the organization established Project 2025, an expansive plan to reshape the United States federal government and consolidate executive power should the Republican Party candidate win the 2024 presidential election.[4]
