Congressional Hearing on Steroids in Major League Baseball

January 15, 2008

Washington, DC -- “As a father, I know how important it is for children and young people to have good role models,” said Congressman Sarbanes. “The pervasive steroid use by some of the sport’s largest names is alarming. As a nation, it will take parents, coaches and athletes working together to move to a culture of playing clean without the use of performance enhancements. It is my hope that the public watching the hearing is watching not just as fans of baseball but also as parents and coaches thinking about the messages we’re sending and how each of us can participate in the campaign to turn
around steroid use.”
