“As members of the Autonomy Five Conferences, the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12, and SEC applaud Senators Blumenthal, Booker, and Moran for their thoughtful work on legislation to protect and benefit student athletes, the statement opens. “Given the ever-changing landscape of college athletics, developing a federal standard that will preserve college athletics and serve as a uniform name, image, and likeness (NIL) standard for athletes and institutions across the country is now essential. We are pleased to see that momentum continues building in both the Senate and the House to address this issue. Our conferences welcome additional efforts in the future, and we look forward to engaging with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle to continue making progress on bipartisan legislation in Congress.”
