  SA 4469. Mr. WHITEHOUSE submitted an amendment intended to be 
proposed to amendment SA 3867 submitted by Mr. Reed and intended to be 
proposed to the bill H.R. 4350, to authorize appropriations for fiscal 
year 2022 for military activities of the Department of Defense, for 
military construction, and for defense activities of the Department of 
Energy, to prescribe military personnel strengths for such fiscal year, 
and for other purposes; which was ordered to lie on the table; as 
follows:

        At the appropriate place in title X, insert the following:

     SEC. ___. GOLD ACT.

       (a) Short Title.--This section may be cited as the 
     ``Guarantee Oversight and Litigation on Doping Act'' or the 
     ``GOLD Act''.
       (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) the punishment of Russia for persistent decades-long 
     state-run doping fraud by the international sport governance 
     structure has been insufficient and Russia's competing status 
     as ``ROC'' at Tokyo 2020 demonstrates to authoritarian states 
     around the world that systematic doping will be tolerated; 
     and
       (2) aggressive enforcement of the Rodchenkov Anti-Doping 
     Act of 2019 (21 U.S.C. 2401 et seq.) can create the deterrent 
     required to curb doping fraud as the Foreign Corrupt 
     Practices Act of 1977 (15 U.S.C. 78dd-1 et seq.) curbed 
     foreign bribery and the Department of Justice and the Federal 
     Bureau of Investigation should prioritize enforcement of the 
     Rodchenkov Anti-Doping Act of 2019 (21 U.S.C. 2401 et seq.).
       (c) Predicate Offenses.--Part I of title 18, United States 
     Code, is amended--
       (1) in section 1956(c)(7)(D)--
       (A) by striking ``or section 104(a)'' and inserting 
     ``section 104(a)''; and
       (B) by inserting after ``North Korea)'' the following: ``, 
     or section 3 of the Rodchenkov Anti-Doping Act of 2019 (21 
     U.S.C. 2402) (relating to prohibited activities with respect 
     to major international doping fraud conspiracies)''; and
       (2) in section 1961(1)--
       (A) by striking ``or (G) any act'' and inserting ``(G) any 
     act''; and
       (B) by inserting after ``section 2332(b)(g)(5)(B)'' the 
     following: ``, or (H) any act that is indictable under 
     section 3 of the Rodchenkov Anti-Doping Act of 2019 (21 
     U.S.C. 2402)''.
       (d) Limitation.--An athlete (as defined in section 2 of the 
     Rodchenkov Anti-Doping Act of 2019 (21 U.S.C. 2401)) may not 
     be prosecuted under section 1956 or chapter 96 of title 18, 
     United States Code, for any offense for which a violation of 
     section 3 of the Rodchenkov Anti-Doping Act of 2019 was the 
     predicate offense.
                                 ______
