Olympic Committee Takes First Step to De-Certify USA Gymnastics in Wake of Nassar

The U.S. Olympic Committee (USOC) took the first step Monday that could lead to decertifying USA Gymnastics and revoking the organization's status as America's representative for gymnasts in national and international competition.

Gymnasts – including Olympian Aly Raisman – have called on the USOC to take action against USA Gymnastics in the wake of repeated scandals following revelations that it failed to act on initial reports of sexual abuse by team doctor Larry Nassar.
