Horseracing Integrity and Safety Act of 2015

This bill proposes the creation of a uniform, national anti-doping program for the horse racing industry to replace the current patchwork of state-by-state regulations. It would designate the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) as the independent body responsible for setting strict rules on medications and treatments allowed in horses that participate in races involving interstate gambling.

For the public, this legislation aims to increase transparency and safety in the sport by ensuring that all tracks follow the same drug-testing standards and disciplinary procedures. By centralizing oversight, the bill seeks to protect the health of the horses and maintain the integrity of the competition for fans and bettors across the country.
