Weat Eugene Planet Fitness discriminaing Against Disabled Boycott!
Planet Fitness on West 11th in Eugene Disciminated Against Disabled Veteran who became hombound, and due to his asking them by phone to cancel his membership as he became immobile due to several conditions and has been having to pay because their franchise rule demands he had to come in person to cancel.Because the veteran cannot drive due to serious eye conitions as well as mobility issues. They denied his accomadation request violating the Americans With Disabilities Act. The American Disabilities Act (ADA) requires all facilities, including gyms and workout centers, to be safe, adequately equipped, and maintained to optimize their accessibility to non-disabled and disabled patrons. This requirement includes people with disabilities or physical challenges. He had jmust moved back from PDX area where he was a member of a Cororate Planet Fitness Gym thathad no such rule. He did not yet have anyone to support him and take him down there as his chronic pain still was a barrier to have to leave his home even if he could find transportation. He planns on filing a lawsuit with the Civil Rights Division as law requires he do that before filing a lawsuit. Unfotunately for Planet Fitness, he knows the ropes and has won several suits as he belongs to a ADA Advocay Organizatim.Basicaly The DOJ Attorneys become his lawers. For free, but the Franchise owners will have to pay out of pocket to fight DOJ,
