PROTECTING OUR DEMOCRACY
Our Story
Our National Movement
The 50501 Movement is a nationwide, decentralized effort where citizens from all 50 states gather at their state capitals to peacefully voice their opposition to the policies and practices of the Trump presidency. At its core, the movement is driven by a deep commitment to democracy, inclusivity, and the protection of our constitutional values. Our movement champions the idea that every individual has a role in shaping the future of our country.

Who We Are – 50501 KY
As a decentralized movement, 50501 has no official chapters. Instead, each state has complete autonomy over how local events are organized. 50501 KY remains a volunteer-driven, grassroots initiative committed to making participation more accessible to any Kentuckian who wants to join the cause. We are a collective of concerned citizens united by a shared vision: to lower the barriers between interested observers and active organizers.
Our movement includes members from all across the political spectrum. Whether you are left, right, center, or somewhere else entirely, we are all united in preserving our democracy—the very system that allows us to peacefully advocate for our different beliefs.
Our Mission & Values
In an era where the balance of power is under constant threat—from a compromised Judiciary and a tepid Legislature to an overreaching Executive—our mission is clear. We are dedicated to:
​
-
Unity: Overcoming political and ideological divisions to forge a powerful, unified front against forces that seek to erode our democratic institutions.
-
Inclusivity: Embracing diverse perspectives and backgrounds, knowing that our collective strength lies in our differences.
-
Empowerment: Providing resources, links, and a supportive platform for anyone in Kentucky eager to take action, from a casual observer to an enthusiastic organizer.
By standing together, we aim to counter divisive tactics and protect the integrity of our democracy. Our grassroots approach means every voice matters—and every volunteer effort builds the foundation for meaningful change.
