Three Congress members sent a letter to Major League Baseball and its players' association Monday to prohibit promotional deals with betting operators after Phillies star Bryce Harper was featured in a video for a FanDuel VIP reward customer.
U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) and U.S. Reps. Paul Tonko (D-NY) and Valerie Foushee (D-NC) sent the letter to MLB, the MLBPA and FanDuel to take action after the video of Harper.
"We write to demand an end to the MLB and MLBPA policies that enabled this type of predatory promotion," part of the letter says.
