Bill > S3943

This bill, the NCAA Accountability Act of 2022, establishes due process requirements for the investigation of intercollegiate athletics by covered athletic associations (interstate athletic associations with at least 900 member institutions). Key provisions include requiring covered associations to provide written notice to member institutions within 60 days of initiating an investigation, limiting the scope of investigations to alleged violations within the past 2 years, and mandating a hearing process with the ability for member institutions to seek independent arbitration. The bill also requires covered associations to submit annual reports on their enforcement activities to the Attorney General and state attorneys general, and grants the Attorney General the authority to investigate and enforce compliance with the Act's provisions.
