This Tuesday the 20th at 3pm central the Senate Judiciary Committee will be voting on Senate Joint Resolution 0902 (SJR0902). SJR0902, known as the Right to Food Amendment, would add the following language to the state constitution:
All individuals have a natural, inherent, and unalienable right to food, including the right to save and exchange seeds and to consume the food of their own choosing as long as an individual does not commit trespassing, theft, poaching, or other abuses of private property rights, public lands, or natural resources in the acquisition of seeds or food.
All individuals have the right to grow, raise, harvest, and produce food of their own choosing on land that is not zoned for a particular use, or that is zoned for agricultural or residential use, or that is zoned for mixture of uses that includes agricultural or residential use, by the local government entity that is authorized by law to zone such land, as long as individual does not commit trespassing, theft, poaching, or other abuses of private property rights, public lands, or natural resources in the harvesting, production, or acquisition of such foods.
The right to grow, harvest, produce and consume is a basic fundamental right; the resolution is a commonsense protection of that right—something that is especially needed with supply chain disruptions, rolling shortages of various foods, and the deprivation of fundamental health freedoms throughout the country over the past few years as well as an increasing lack of transparency as to what ingredients are actually in foods in the conventional system.
The right to bodily autonomy, the right to determine what foods we put in our bodies, is something that can no longer be taken for granted; who would have thought that millions in this country would be threatened with the loss of their livelihood if they did not get an experimental “vaccine”? It’s time to give our right to food a higher level of protection.
