Sen. Ted Cruz proposes bill to preserve college sports through self-governance
Senator Ted Cruz has unveiled a new bill aimed at safeguarding college athletics by codifying name, image, and likeness (NIL) rights for student-athletes while limiting federal involvement, citing the need for a national solution amidst varying state legislations. Cruz's proposed legislation seeks to strike a balance between empowering athletic associations to enforce rules and preserving the idea that student-athletes are primarily students, drawing inspiration from the self-governance model established over a century ago.
