MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Republican state lawmakers are urging the governor to allow gyms to reopen as soon as possible.
“It doesn’t add up that gyms should be closed,” said Representative Barb Haley of Red Wing (R).
Representative Haley and other House Republicans sent a letter to Governor Walz asking him to re-open fitness centers. Their argument is data-driven. Gyms fall into the “social setting category” for outbreaks, and Haley says the number of cases dropped each month- from August to November. That includes YMCAs.
