A RESOLUTION urging federal policymakers to adopt a uniform definition of "ultra-processed food."

This resolution urges federal officials to establish a consistent, standard definition for the terms "ultra-processed food" and "ultra-processed food of concern." It does not create a new state law but expresses the Kentucky House's position on a federal policy matter. Having a uniform definition could affect how such foods are identified, labeled, or regulated at the national level. Who it may affect: Kentuckians who purchase or consume packaged and processed foods, as well as food manufacturers and retailers operating in the state.
