Don't agree with most of this bill, as I believe the physical education classes our schools currently have are good enough and that eight hours a week is excessive and could cut into other subjects. (I do support the campaign described in Section IV.) However, Section III Provision 2 is the only part I find outright objectionable.

I'd say 5 hours a week - one per day - would be a better number.
