Update 05/13/05: Links to info at The Committee on Energy and Commerce added to the bottom of this post.

According to a recent Reuters article, "the Whizzinator and other products promising to help illegal drug users pass urine tests provoked U.S. lawmakers on Wednesday to take legal action with subpoenas of manufacturers."

A congressional subcommittee recently voted to subpoena records from three companies that manufacture products to help people get around their employers drug testing polices.

The subpoenas cover both operating records and financial records, which means records of anybody who's bought their products.

According to Rep. Ed Whitfield, "These companies seek through deception to make a buck by violating our trust and compromising our security...It is a risk we simply cannot tolerate. This panel will uncover how widespread these products are and recommend the necessary steps to end their use."

The manufacturers of cleansing supplements have also come under fire.
