HR 5076 United States House · 119th Congress

Protection of College Sports Act

HR 5076, the Protection of College Sports Act, codifies Executive Order 14322 into law, making its provisions about college sports revenue and athlete compensation legally binding. The bill does not alter the existing rules in the executive order but ensures they have the force of law, preventing future changes through executive action alone. This directly affects college athletic programs, universities, and student-athletes by establishing permanent legal standards for revenue sharing and compensation. The key mechanism is converting an executive order into statutory law, requiring congressional action for any future modifications.
