Bill > HR850

This bill, the College Athlete Economic Freedom Act, establishes name, image, likeness, and athletic reputation rights for college athletes. The key provisions include: (1) prohibiting institutions of higher education or intercollegiate athletic associations from preventing college athletes from marketing the use of their names, images, likenesses, and athletic reputations; (2) allowing college athletes to retain professional representation for contracts and legal matters; (3) providing grants to analyze the monetization of college athletes' rights; and (4) treating violations of the bill as unfair or deceptive acts or practices under the Federal Trade Commission Act, with a private right of action and potential antitrust liability. The bill also preempts state laws related to college athletes' ability to enter into contracts for the use of their rights, except for the certification of athlete agents.
