随着姓名、形象和肖像权（NIL）政策彻底改变大学体育格局，参议院迈出重要第一步，推动建立标准化的联邦大学体育监管框架。
议员们将由得克萨斯州联邦参议员特德·克鲁兹（共和党）和华盛顿州联邦参议员玛丽亚·坎特韦尔（民主党）牵头的《保护大学体育法案》推进至下一阶段，为参议院本周晚些时候审议该两党法案铺平了道路。
“我想大多数人都承认，当前的大学体育格局一团糟，”参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩（南达科他州共和党）在投票前表示，“这件事亟需解决。”

克鲁兹将该法案核心定位为遏制大学体育乱象的手段——这一乱象始于2021年美国全国大学体育协会（NCAA）作出里程碑式决议，允许学生运动员在参加大学橄榄球、篮球等多项赛事期间获取经济收益。
“有人问为什么国会要插手此事？答案很简单：因为国会从一开始就搞砸了，”克鲁兹在周一的新闻发布会上说道。
“是联邦反垄断法在一起又一起诉讼中的适用，从根本上摧毁了所有规则，”他补充道，“所以现在这里简直就是狂野西部。”

《保护大学体育法案》将广泛限制学生运动员的转会 portal（转会窗口）规则，建立统一的五年参赛资格框架，制定招募与违规接触监管细则，明确学校或经纪人何时可以联系、招募学生运动员，确立NIL规则的联邦统一标准，并设置收入分配上限。
该法案的反对者包括康涅狄格州联邦参议员克里斯·墨菲，他认为《保护大学体育法案》会剥夺学生运动员的议价能力，并为高校豁免反垄断法适用。
“所谓的‘乱象’，不过是（大多为黑人的）运动员现在拥有了议价能力，而白人教练和体育行业高管对此恨之入骨，”墨菲在X平台上说道。

由纽约州联邦众议员伊薇特·克拉克牵头的国会黑人核心小组宣布将不支持该法案。该组织在一份声明中表示，在“全美黑人政治代表权正遭到攻击”的当下——即今年早些时候最高法院就《选举权法案》作出裁决后，他们不会支持这项法案。
“数月前，在参议院推进此事之前，国会黑人核心小组就已明确表示，当强大的体育院校在黑人选民投票权与黑人政治代表权遭受前所未有的攻击时大多保持沉默，国会不应急于为这些院校提供全面的新联邦保护与法律确定性，”该组织说道。
坎特韦尔承认了反对声音，称“其中几位是我的朋友与盟友”。
“我明确表示，投票权是神圣不可侵犯的，我将与所有人并肩作战，”她在参议院议事厅说道，“但我不能认同，将数千名学生运动员的奖学金、医疗保障与未来作为人质，来迫使最高法院作出他们并未参与的裁决，这是争取投票权的正确方式。”

The Senate took a major first step to advancing standardized, federal guardrails on college sports as name, image and likeness (NIL) has transformed the landscape of collegiate athletics.
Lawmakers moved the Protect College Sports Act, led by Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., onto the next phase, opening up the opportunity for the Senate to advance the bipartisan bill later in the week.
“I think most people acknowledge that the current landscape of college sports is a mess,” Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., said ahead of the vote. “It needs to be addressed.”
SENATE ADVANCES LANDMARK PROTECT COLLEGE SPORTS ACT, IGNORING SEC AND BIG TEN OPPOSITION WITH CLOCK TICKING

At its core, Cruz pitched the legislation as a means to corral the chaos that has unfolded in college athletics since the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) made its landmark decision in 2021 to allow student-athletes to benefit financially while playing collegiate football, basketball and many others.
“Some have asked why should Congress get in the middle of this? The answer is simple: because Congress screwed it up in the first place,” Cruz said during a press conference on Monday.
“It has been the federal antitrust laws applied in litigation after litigation after litigation that have had the effect of tearing down essentially all the rules,” he continued. “So right now it is the Wild West.”
The Protect College Sports Act would broadly add restrictions to the transfer portal for student-athletes, create a uniform eligibility framework of five years, recruiting and tampering guardrails that establish when schools or agents can contact or recruit a student-athlete, a federal standard for NIL rules, and a revenue-sharing cap.
Opponents of the bill, including Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., contended that the Protect College Sports Act would take away bargaining power from student-athletes and create exemptions from antitrust laws for colleges.
“The ‘chaos’ is that (mostly black) athletes now have bargaining power and white coaches and sports industry execs hate it,” Murphy said on X.

And the Congressional Black Caucus, led by Rep. Yvette Clarke, D-N.Y., announced that it would not support the bill, charging in a statement that it would not support the legislation while “Black political representation is under attack across the country,” following the Supreme Court’s decision on the Voting Rights Act earlier this year.
“Several months ago, before the Senate ever reached this moment, the Congressional Black Caucus made clear that Congress should not rush to provide sweeping new federal protections and legal certainty to powerful athletic institutions while those same institutions remained largely silent as Black voting rights and Black political representation came under unprecedented attack,” the group said.

Cantwell acknowledged the pushback, noting that “several are friends and allies.”
“Let me be clear, voting rights are sacred, and I will stand in that fight with anyone,” she said on the Senate floor. “But I cannot agree that the way to wage it is to hold thousands of student-athletes’ scholarships, health protections and future hostages to a Supreme Court decision they did not make.”
