## Resource

Congress is racing to pass the Protect College Sports Act — a sweeping 200-page bipartisan bill aiming to unify college athletics under one national standard, tackling everything from player safety and eligibility to NIL deals and revenue sharing. Spearheaded after a marathon hearing where LSU’s president endorsed it, the legislation seeks to end the chaos of conflicting NCAA rules — like those that left athletes Dae’Quan Wright and Zxavian Harris stranded in legal limbo before they won their case for a five-year eligibility window. With Senate debate stalled and partisan divides still deep, the future of college sports hangs in the balance as lawmakers push for clarity — but consensus remains elusive.
