College Athletics Reform Act
To protect the name, image, and likeness rights of college athletes.
HB6350, known as the College Athletics Reform Act, is a bill aiming to safeguard the rights of college athletes regarding their name, image, and likeness. The bill seeks to ensure that student-athletes can benefit financially from their own fame and recognition while they are in college.
This bill would primarily impact college athletes by granting them the right to profit from their personal brand during their time at university. This includes opportunities to endorse products, use their likeness in advertisements, or receive compensation for appearances, all of which they are currently restricted from doing under current rules.
HB6350 was introduced on December 2, 2025, and has been referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, as well as the Committees on the Judiciary and Education and Workforce. The next steps will involve these committees reviewing and considering the bill's provisions.
