Senate Passes College Sports Regulation Bill

The Senate has passed the bipartisan Protect College Sports Act with an overwhelming 77-22 vote, aiming to bring order to college sports amid rising athlete payments.

The Senate passed sweeping bipartisan legislation on Monday to regulate college sports, addressing the "chaos" caused by skyrocketing athlete payments and unrestricted transfers between schools.

The Protect College Sports Act would grant the NCAA new authority over name, image, and likeness rules while providing limited antitrust protections to enforce them. Critics argue the legislation doesn't go far enough in reforming the industry. mchezo.co.za
