The fitness industry—health clubs and studios in all 50 states.
This means it raises money and contributes those funds to candidates for federal office who stand with HFA on mission-critical issues.
WHERE is FitPAC based?

HOW is FitPAC associated with HFA?
FitPAC is a federal political action committee (PAC) that’s connected to the Health & Fitness Association. It operates as a separate fund, made up of voluntary, personal donations from executives at HFA member companies.
FitPAC utilizes those funds to amplify the collective voice of HFA, ensuring that policymakers understand the challenges and priorities of the fitness sector.
WHY does FitPAC's advocacy work matter?
FitPAC plays a vital role in shaping both federal and state public policies that impact your operations!
FitPAC is one of the most important tools HFA uses to:
✔️ Amplify the voice of the fitness industry in Washington ✔️ Build strong relationships with policymakers ✔️ Educate lawmakers on the impact of fitness on public health ✔️ Safeguard long-term industry growth and stability ✔️ Foster political engagement among HFA member executives
💲 Where We Stand
Thanks to the support of HFA member executives, FitPAC has raised $150,000 so far in 2025! And we’re on the path to hitting our $200,000 goal 💯
