New Jersey Assembly Resolution 107 urges Congress to study food deserts and the feasibility of federal solutions.

New Jersey Assembly Resolution 107 calls on the U.S. Congress to study food deserts and the feasibility of federal action to address them. Food deserts are areas with limited access to affordable and healthy foods, often in low-income communities. The resolution highlights that current state policies are insufficient to fully address the issue. It emphasizes the need for federal research to inform potential policy solutions, both at the state and national levels.
