Seven L&T employees joined industry professionals from around the country at the IHRSA Legislative Summit—Working Together for a Healthy America-- in Washington DC on May 21, 22, 2008. Attendees received advocacy training, heard from democratic and republican strategists about the upcoming election and visited with legislators to raise awareness on the economic benefits of worksite health promotion and secure sponsors for the Workforce Health Improvement Act (WHIP) and the Personal Health Investment Today (PHIT) Act. These bills are positive steps toward encouraging healthier lifestyles by removing federal barriers to exercise and promoting increased awareness of the benefits of exercise. As the trade association for the health/fitness industry, IHRSA works to increase the recognition of our industry and seek passage of legislation that promotes physical activity and prevention. See www.ihrsa.org for an update on the WHIP and PHIT bills.
