Proclamation 10943 of May 24, 2025
National Physical Fitness and Sports Month, 2025
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
During National Physical Fitness and Sports Month, we
celebrate the foundational role that physical fitness
and sports play in helping us to live longer,
healthier, and more fulfilling lives. Through sports,
fitness routines, and staying active, we have the
opportunity to improve our health, strengthen our
communities, and build a brighter future for our
country.
For far too long, our Nation has failed to prioritize
the health and well-being of the American people. This
negligence has come at a devastating cost. As a result,
the United States lags behind other developed countries
in life expectancy, chronic disease prevention, and
overall public health outcomes.
This era of indifference ended when I took office. I
was proud to appoint Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. as the
Secretary of Health and Human Services to urgently
confront and stop this crisis. I also established the
Make America Healthy Again Commission, tasked with
ensuring Americans have access to nutritious food
choices, while addressing the root causes of childhood
chronic diseases. With public health as a cornerstone
of my Administration, we are forging a future where the
American people are healthier and stronger than ever
before.
Engagement and active participation in sports,
especially among our youth, is vital to fostering a
culture of health and physical fitness. My
Administration is committed to ensuring that our sports
and competitive spaces remain safe, free, and
accessible for future generations of Americans. In my
first term, I signed an Executive Order to nationally
expand children's participation in sports, promoting
physical activity, fitness, and the academic and social
benefits of healthy lifestyles. I was also proud to
recently sign an Executive Order to keep biological men
out of women's sports, ensuring our female athletes are
free to compete and excel on a level and fair playing
field.
Together, we are building a healthier and more
flourishing Nation, one that champions physical fitness
and well-being, empowering every citizen to reach their
full potential and excel in all aspects of life.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the
United States of America, by virtue of the authority
vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the
United States, do hereby proclaim May 2025 as National
Physical Fitness and Sports Month. I call upon the
people of the United States to incorporate physical
fitness and sports participation into their everyday
lives.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
twenty-fourth day of May, in the year of our Lord two
thousand twenty-five, and of the Independence of the
United States of America the two hundred and forty-
ninth.
