It's been four years since passage of the law requiring all Minnesota schools to include physical education.

Lawmakers now want to know how it's working.

State Rep. Kim Norton says a bill will be introduced today that asks for a report on the status.

It's recommended that elementary school children receive 150 minutes of phys. ed. per week - 225 minutes in middle and high schools.
