HR 693 United States House · 119th Congress

Restoring Confidence in the World Anti-Doping Agency Act of 2025

This bill requires the U.S. Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) to ensure the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has fair U.S. representation and governance reforms within 90 days of enactment. It mandates ONDCP to assess whether WADA meets standards like independent athlete representation on its governing bodies, conflict-of-interest policies, and transparent decision-making. If WADA fails these standards, the U.S. can withhold all membership dues (up to 100% of annual payment) and must issue a report detailing barriers to U.S. participation. The bill directly affects U.S. athletes - particularly "independent athletes" (those not affiliated with Olympic bodies or WADA) - by shaping their influence on global anti-doping governance. It does not change anti-doping rules for athletes but sets U.S. policy for engaging with WADA.
