_______________________________________________________________________

                                 AN ACT


 
To amend the Ted Stevens Olympic and Amateur Sports Act to provide for 
congressional oversight of the board of directors of the United States 
 Olympic and Paralympic Committee and to protect amateur athletes from 
     emotional, physical, and sexual abuse, and for other purposes.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Empowering Olympic, Paralympic, and 
Amateur Athletes Act of 2020''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The courageous voice of survivors is a call to action 
        to end emotional, physical, and sexual abuse in the Olympic and 
        Paralympic movement.
            (2) Larry Nassar, the former national team doctor for USA 
        Gymnastics, sexually abused over 300 athletes for over two 
        decades because of ineffective oversight by USA Gymnastics and 
        the United States Olympic Committee.
            (3) While the case of Larry Nassar is unprecedented in 
        scale, the case is hardly the only recent incident of sexual 
        abuse in amateur sports.
            (4) Survivors of Larry Nassar's abuse and all survivors of 
        abuse in the Olympic and Paralympic movement deserve justice 
        and redress for the wrongs the survivors have suffered.
            (5) After a comprehensive congressional investigation, 
        including interviews and statements from survivors, former and 
        current organization officials, law enforcement, and advocates, 
        Congress found that the United States Olympic Committee and USA 
        Gymnastics fundamentally failed to uphold their existing 
        statutory purposes and duty to protect amateur athletes from 
        sexual, emotional, or physical abuse.
            (6) USA Gymnastics and the United States Olympic Committee 
        knowingly concealed abuse by Larry Nassar, leading to the abuse 
        of dozens of additional amateur athletes during the period 
        beginning in the summer of 2015 and ending in September 2016.
            (7) Ending abuse in the Olympic and Paralympic movement 
        requires enhanced oversight to ensure that the Olympic and 
        Paralympic movement does more to serve athletes and protect 
        their voice and safety.
