I am a constituent writing to ask you to become a co-sponsor and support S. 4724 – College Athletes Bill of Rights (a bill in the 117th session that is soon to be filed for the 118th session). It protects college athletes’ rights to NIL income, agent representation, gender equity, transfer to a new school, enter pro sports drafts and return to college, have the same freedom of speech as other students, proper medical care and coverage for four years after eligibility ends, tutoring from outside the athletics department, and a national commission to implement and enforce
these provisions with strict penalties for violations. For too long, governance organizations like the NCAA have failed to protect those under their charge from sex discrimination, the short and long-term costs of athletic injuries and have unfairly denied college athletes outside employment opportunities under the guise of “amateur status.” It is important for Congress to take action.
