HCR 111 Kentucky House · 2026 Regular Session

A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION declaring the right to adequate food.

This bill is a concurrent resolution that declares all people have a right to adequate food, establishing a formal statement of principle rather than creating new laws or funding. It defines adequate food as consistent access to safe, nutritious, and culturally acceptable food that supports healthy living, and asserts that individuals have an inherent right to grow and consume food for their own nourishment. The resolution directs the state to prioritize underdeveloped communities in food production and encourages coordination between state and local entities to protect this right. It does not allocate money or change existing programs but serves as a symbolic declaration of values for future policy consideration.
