Congress has a role in pushing these organizations to remove doping, under the idea that there is a trickle down effect throughout the United States, esp. on younger athletes.

Oh, btw, congresspersons can walk and chew gum at the same time. At least when they are worrying about baseball, they are not attaching pork to spending bills.
