What changed between versions

Engrossed Enrolled · 4 edits · Aug 15, 2025
MODERATE
The bill was finalized as Enrolled, replacing the Engrossed version with updated language for Section 7.5 regarding lifetime fitness memberships. The changes shift the focus from merely requiring disclosure of potential fee increases to explicitly prohibiting centers from offering memberships that violate specific contract rules. Additionally, the requirement for disclosing changes in payment obligations or benefits was tightened to occur at least 60 days before an automatic renewal.
Scope change
The scope of the section was expanded from 'Contract requirements' to 'Advertising and contract requirements,' broadening the regulatory focus to include how memberships are marketed.
REQUIREMENT

The definition of 'lifetime membership' was updated to use 'canceled' instead of 'cancelled' for consistency.

The requirement to disclose cost increases or benefit reductions was strengthened to mandate disclosure no later than 60 days before an automatic renewal.

A new provision was added prohibiting physical fitness centers from offering or advertising any lifetime membership that violates the specific contract rules outlined in the bill.

The language regarding contract copies was updated to refer to a 'contract for services' instead of just a 'lifetime membership contract'.
