Bill Summary
A BILL To amend title 18, United States Code, to include doping fraud as a predicate offense for racketeering and money laundering offenses, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, the Guarantee Oversight and Litigation on Doping Act (GOLD Act), amends the United States Code to include doping fraud as a predicate offense for racketeering and money laundering offenses. Specifically, it adds violations of the Rodchenkov Anti-Doping Act of 2019, which prohibits certain activities related to major international doping fraud conspiracies, as predicate offenses for racketeering and money laundering. The bill also expresses the sense of Congress that the punishment of Russia for persistent state-run doping fraud has been insufficient and that aggressive enforcement of the Rodchenkov Anti-Doping Act can create the necessary deterrent to curb doping fraud, similar to how the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act curbed foreign bribery.
