NJ SJR168

Formally recognizes the right to adequate food in New Jersey, including physical and economic access to safe, nutritious, culturally appropriate food at all life stages

Defines "access" to include individuals' ability to save and exchange seeds, grow, raise, harvest, and consume food of their choosing, while respecting property rights and the federal Plant Variety Protection Act

Encourages state entities to prioritize underdeveloped communities' food needs and coordinate with the Department of Agriculture to support New Jersey farmers' access to commercial markets and farmland preservation

Authorizes the Department of Health to promote food banks and soup kitchens in accessible locations, and the Department of Agriculture to promote sustainable food production practices

Explicitly states the resolution does not create a private right of action and serves as guiding principles for future laws, rules, and regulations rather than enforceable mandates
