This bill establishes the President's Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition , consisting of up to 30 members appointed by the President for two-year terms. The Council's primary role is to advise the President on progress in promoting youth health and fitness and to recommend actions to accelerate such progress. Key functions of the Council include developing strategies for reestablishing and improving the Presidential Fitness Test , promoting school-based programs, and expanding opportunities for sports participation and physical fitness at global, national, State, and local levels. It will also recommend bold fitness goals for American youth and promote campaigns emphasizing American sports, military readiness, and health traditions. Crucially, the Council is tasked with addressing the national security threat posed by increasing rates of childhood obesity, chronic diseases, and sedentary lifestyles, which impact future workforce and military readiness. The Secretary of Health and Human Services will provide funding and administrative support, and the Council is scheduled to terminate two years after enactment unless extended by the President.
