flag Senator Cantwell introduces bill to let college sports conferences pool TV rights, boost revenue, and protect athletes.

flag Senator Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., has introduced the Student Athlete Fairness and Enforcement Act, which would allow college athletic conferences to pool TV rights to generate billions in new revenue, similar to professional leagues. flag The bill grants antitrust immunity, mandates free-to-air local broadcasts, limits athlete transfers to two, protects scholarships and healthcare, and requires schools to use new revenue to fund women’s and Olympic sports. flag It empowers the FTC and state attorneys general to regulate third-party NIL collectives and offers a federal pre-emption alternative to the stalled SCORE Act, avoiding provisions that would classify athletes as employees.
