Bipartisan Trio of Senators Drafts Federal NIL Rule
A bipartisan trio of senators is looking to standardize and regulate name, image and likeness rules for college athletes, Yahoo Sports reported. The draft bill was co-written by Kansas senator Jerry Moran, a Republican, along with New Jersey senator Cory Booker and Connecticut senator Richard Blumenthal, who are Democrats.
The bill would set a national policy allowing college athletes to profit off of their name, image and likeness, which would trump state policies, and create the College Athletics Corporation to administer the bill and create specific policies.
