Senate passes bill on college athletics and NIL
The US Senate has passed a bill concerning college athletics and name, image, and likeness (NIL) payments for student-athletes. The legislation would set federal rules for how college athletes can earn money from endorsements and sponsorship deals, an area currently governed by a patchwork of state laws and NCAA policies. Further action by the House of Representatives and the President would be required for it to become law.
Why now: NIL rules for college athletes are a contentious, fast-changing issue, and federal legislation marks a significant development in the debate.
