At the end of April, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the FIT Kids Act and brought us another step closer to helping improve the health of our nation's kids. Before we turn our attention to continuing to advance the bill, help us thank Members of the House of Representatives for their action.
If you haven't done so yet, please follow the link below to thank Representative Biggert:
Thank Representative Biggert for Supporting FIT Kids
As you know, strong Physical Education (PE) programs in our nation's schools are an important part of teaching healthy lifestyle choices and curbing the rise in childhood obesity. However, very few students actually receive the regular PE they need for healthy bodies and minds.
The FIT Kids Act would help us take a step in the right direction by establishing a framework for schools to closely look at the quality and quantity of PE they are providing, and to supply parents with that information to better understand the PE their kids are receiving.
Thank Representative Biggert for Supporting FIT Kids
Thank you for your support on this important legislative issue.
