I copied this from the Obesityhelp.com site.

I found some very interesting information at the American Obesity

Association's site about their opposition to SAWS' <A

HREF= " http://obesity.org/subs/advocacy/airfaircampaign.shtml " > " ZERO TOLERANCE

POLICY FOR OVERWEIGHT

AMERICANS " </A>In part, they state that The American Obesity Association feels

this policy is unfair, discriminatory and mean-spirited. OAA is very concerned

that the policy will provide a humiliating and insulting encounter between the

airline and overweight passengers traveling with their family, friends and

business colleagues. In addition, the policy is likely to disproportionately

affect women, African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans and Native Americans who

have

higher rates of obesity than other groups.

They also urge everyone to share with OAA any negative experience you have

with any airlines regarding your weight. They have several recommendations on

where to lodge complaints ~

with the OAA

the airlines

write your Senator and Member of Congress protesting this policy and ask for

assistance

Write the Department of Transportation to complain of this action.

They have complete contact information on this site and some very interesting

information.
