House Joint Resolution 780, sponsored by Reneau, proposes an amendment to Article XI of the Tennessee Constitution to establish and protect the right to food for individuals. The resolution asserts that all individuals possess a natural, inherent, and unalienable right to save and exchange seeds, as well as to acquire and consume food of their own choosing, provided they do not engage in illegal activities such as trespassing or theft. Additionally, it affirms the right to grow, raise, harvest, and produce food on land that is appropriately zoned, while also clarifying that this recognition of rights does not restrict the state's authority to regulate the possession of seeds or the cultivation of plants associated with controlled substances.

The resolution mandates that the proposed amendment be referred to the One Hundred Fifteenth General Assembly for consideration and requires its publication on the official websites of the Secretary of State and the General Assembly. Furthermore, it instructs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to deliver copies of the resolution to the Secretary of State and the Director of the Office of Legislative Information Services.
