Help Get
The PHIT
Act Passed
3
The PHIT (Personal Health
Investment Today) Act promotes
physical health by allowing the use
of pre-tax medical funds to pay for
qualified fitness and sports expenses,
up to $1,000 per year for individuals or
$2,000 for heads of household.
USA Hockey supports this legislation
as it will mean families in our sport will
be able to use funds up to the limits
noted for things like participation fees,
lessons/clinics and the purchase of
equipment to play our sport.
All of us need to let our congressional
leaders know the time is now to pass
the PHIT Act. Please take time now to
share your support with your members
of Congress. There is momentum to
pass this legislation and we need all of
us to help get it over the finish line.
