This isn't directly related to motorcycles but to those who need access to a fitness centers, whether for exercise or physical therapy, this legislation, presented by
State Representative Joe Deshotel, if passed would make
all municipal fitness centers in the state of Texas accessible to municipal employees
ONLY. This may seem petty until you think of all the people that have had some type of surgery/accident and are in need of an affordable place to get therapy/exercise to aid in their continued healing/recovery.
My sister, who has had knee and hip replacement uses one of these centers so that she can have access to the water aerobics classes held there. This helps her because it's affordable and otherwise she would not have access to therapy. I realise not all cities have one of these, but last time I checked, municipal meant city and I'm pretty sure our tax dollars built and maintain them. I for one don't feel like paying for the city employees to have a fitness center, exclusively for them.
Please take two minutes to sign the petition and keep these centers available to the public who they were built for in the first place.
