The 50501 Movement is a grassroots political action organization formed to protest the policies and actions of the second Donald Trump administration in the United States. The name “50501” stands for “50 protests, 50 states, one day,” reflecting the movement’s goal to organize simultaneous demonstrations across all 50 states.
Background and Origins
The movement originated on Reddit, where activists began organizing under the hashtags #buildtheresistance and #50501. It quickly gained traction through social media platforms, leading to widespread participation.
Key Events
- February 5, 2025: The inaugural nationwide demonstration took place, with thousands gathering outside state capitol buildings and city halls across the country.
- February 17, 2025 (Presidents’ Day): A second nationwide protest, dubbed “No Kings on Presidents Day,” was organized, focusing on opposition to President Trump and his administration’s policies.
Objectives and Concerns
The 50501 Movement aims to address concerns over what participants describe as “anti-democratic and illegal actions” by the Trump administration. Protesters have expressed dismay about the role of Elon Musk and his actions in the federal system.
Future Plans
The movement has announced plans for additional protests, including one scheduled for March 4, 2025, in various locations throughout the United States.
