Congress may be on August recess, but for the health and fitness industry, this month is integral to keep our foot on the gas and promote PHIT. The PHIT Act (H.R. 1582/S. 786) is an important piece of legislation that, if passed, allows Americans to use their Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) to pay for gym memberships, fitness equipment, and youth sports fees. Use the resources below to take action in our grassroots campaign and urge elected officials to co-sponsor the bill.
