HR 1094 Arkansas House · 2025 Regular Session

TO RAISE AWARENESS OF THE ISSUE OF FOOD INSECURITY; TO ACKNOWLEDGE SCHOOL BREAKFAST MONTH IN ARKANSAS; AND TO WORK TOWARD A SOLUTION TO THE ISSUE OF FOOD INSECURITY IN ARKANSAS.

HR 1094 is a symbolic House Resolution acknowledging Arkansas' status as the U.S. state with the highest food insecurity rate (affecting 19% of families and 1 in 4 children) and designating October as School Breakfast Month. It directs Arkansas House members to raise awareness by partnering with hunger relief groups, visit local food pantries and schools during School Breakfast Month, and develop policies to address food insecurity - beyond universal school breakfast. The resolution also requires monitoring progress on these efforts. As a non-binding resolution, it does not fund programs or create new laws but aims to prioritize the issue through legislative action and awareness.
