Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committees on the Judiciary, and Education and Workforce, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
H.R. 6350 comprehensively reforms college athletics by establishing federal rules for athlete compensation, agent conduct, and financial transparency. The bill caps sports agent fees at 4 percent of endorsement deals and requires agents to register with states, while also creating a 16-member Commission to Stabilize College Sports to study governance issues including collective bargaining and revenue-sharing models over two years. The legislation amends antitrust law to allow major athletic conferences to jointly sell television rights as a single package, potentially generating pooled revenue across member schools. Beginning in the 2026-2027 academic year, colleges must expand public disclosure of detailed financial data—including scholarships, athlete compensation, coaching salaries, and Title IX compliance—submitted annually to the Department of Education and posted on college websites in searchable formats. Overall, the bill affects college athletes, their agents, athletic conferences, and the 17 regulatory definitions it establishes to govern name, image, and likeness agreements and related commercial arrangements.
