The Pro Wrestling Torch is reporting that Rep. Cliff Stearns (R - Florida) is motivated to hold congressional hearings on deaths in pro wrestling and is currently pushing colleagues in Congress to join the cause.

Stearns said the following to The Baltimore Sun regarding the matter: "At this time, I do not believe that the new House majority sees steroid use as a serious issue. I urge Chairman [Bobby] Rush of the Commerce, Trade & Consumer Protection Subcommittee to hold a hearing to determine the prevalence of steroid use in professional wrestling and the means of ending their use."
