This year, a resolution was submitted to the Governor's office by Michigan Fitness Foundation to designate May 2023 as Michigan Moves Month. Last week, State Representative Julie M. Rogers (D) District 41, Kalamazoo, a practicing physical therapist and the Chair of House Committee on Health Policy, sponsored the resolution and brought it to the Michigan House of Representatives for vote.
"We know physical activity is an essential public health intervention that can help prevent the development of negative health outcomes and strengthen our health and well-being," stated State Representative Rogers during her recorded presentation. "As the weather finally begins to warm and spring is around the corner, I encourage everyone to increase their activity and get out and move more."
House Resolution 97 passed unanimously.
"As a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting healthy lifestyles and making physical activity accessible to all Michigan residents, we are honored to have Governor Whitmer proclaim May as Michigan Moves Month," said Amy Ghannam, president and CEO of Michigan Fitness Foundation.
