The 2021 Kentucky General Assembly was a meeting of the Kentucky General Assembly, composed of the Kentucky Senate and the Kentucky House of Representatives. It convened in Frankfort on January 5, 2021, and adjourned sine die on March 30, 2021. It was the second regular session of the legislature during the tenure of governor Andy Beshear. The legislature convened again in September 2021 for an extraordinary session.

Republicans maintained their majorities in both chambers following the 2020 elections for the senate and the house.

During this session, the General Assembly approved two constitutional amendments that were voted on in November 2022, including the No Right to Abortion Amendment.
