The Senate Resolution SR 883, introduced by Senator Linda L. Ujifusa on March 27, recommends immediate consideration and honors the Rhode Island Food Policy Council (RIFPC) for its significant contributions to promoting food resilience, addressing food insecurity, and ensuring sustainable access to nutritious food for all residents of Rhode Island since its establishment in 2011. The RIFPC has successfully fostered collaboration among various stakeholders, including community organizations, government agencies, and food businesses, while advocating for policies that ensure equitable access to healthy food. Their efforts have also supported local agriculture and sustainability initiatives, which have strengthened the state's economy and safeguarded food security for future generations. The resolution emphasizes the importance of recognizing and supporting the RIFPC's work in light of ongoing challenges posed by climate change and the uncertainty of national support for food policy initiatives. It commends the staff and volunteers of the RIFPC for their dedication and leadership and directs the Secretary of State to transmit certified copies to key state and federal leaders to acknowledge the RIFPC's extraordinary contributions.
