Nine Connecticut college presidents are urging Congress to pass the bipartisan Protect College Sports Act to protect student-athletes, preserve women’s and Olympic sports, and bring stability to college athletics.

The House has an opportunity to build on the Senate’s bipartisan momentum and get this across the finish line.

Saving College Sports, the (c)4 founded by Texas Tech booster Cody Campbell, will be airing this ad — shared exclusively with @politico — pushing the House to pass the PCSA during college football games across the country this weekend & next: https://t.co/uxfeYt3qCr

Michigan and Michigan State may be rivals on the field, but they’re united on the need to protect college sports.

The presidents of both universities are urging the House to pass the bipartisan Protect College Sports Act and deliver the stability student-athletes deserve.

The House must act soon to save college sports!

Another letter sent to House leaders urging them to pass the Protect College Sports Act, obtained by @FOS:

[Saving College Sports @SavingCollSprts]

University presidents, trustees, regents, and conference commissioners, past and present, from across the country are urging the House of Representatives to pass the bipartisan Protect College Sports Act without amendments.

The Senate delivered 77 votes. Now it is up to the House to get this bill across the finish line and save college sports!

[Saving College Sports @SavingCollSprts]

Ohio's public universities are speaking with one voice.

Representing more than 300,000 students and 5,000 student-athletes, they're calling on the House to pass the bipartisan Protect College Sports Act.

The Senate has acted. Now it's time for the House to finish the job and save college sports!

Yankees president Randy Levine, the White House-sanctioned leader of the congressional efforts on college sports, pens a letter to House leaders urging them to pass the Protect College Sports Act, undersigned by several ADs and commissioners. The House returns to session Nov. 9.

new - Cody Campbell group Saving College Sports warning that UNC, FSU, Miami and Clemson could tank college sports bill in the House by pushing "to raise the conference cap from 20 to 22 while also sunsetting the entire provision so that they have the right to immediately bolt from the ACC"

"They have told members of our board in just the last several hours that they are willing to do everything in their power to defeat the bill if their demands are not met"

[Saving College Sports @SavingCollSprts]

Women’s college sports have never been stronger. But without action from Congress, that progress could be put at risk.

@CodyC64 joined @TakeoutPodcast to explain what’s at stake for women’s sports and the future of college athletics.

What would the bipartisan Protect College Sports Act do?

@CodyC64 joined @WillCainShow to explain how it would bring stability back to college sports, prioritize athletes earning their degrees, protect women’s and Olympic sports, and preserve legitimate NIL opportunities.

Watch:

[Wesley Hunt @WesleyHuntTX]

College sports are a uniquely American tradition and they’re worth protecting.

The Protect College Sports Act puts student-athletes first, protects NIL rights, preserves scholarships, women’s and Olympic sports, and brings common-sense stability back to college athletics.

I commend the Senate for getting this bipartisan legislation across the finish line.

Now it’s time for the House to get to work. I look forward to working with my colleagues to protect student-athletes and preserve college sports for generations to come.

[Rep. August Pfluger @RepPfluger]

I applaud @SenTedCruz for leading the Protect College Sports Act, which passed the Senate with bipartisan support.

After years of uncertainty and constant litigation, college sports need stability. This bill protects student athletes, preserves women's and Olympic sports, and secures the future of college athletics across the country. I look forward to taking it up in the House.

[Tim Brando @TimBrando]

Important vote last night in the Senate and while I’ve not formally stumped for it, there’s no question in my mind this legislation will serve to help College Athletics overall. Not all of it problems are solved, as the leaders of the Conferences can now assert themselves more and they MUST! However, some guard rails were needed and it’s my opinion this clears the way to end much of the recent madness we’ve experienced. As a broadcaster of College Athletics for now over 5 decades we were on the brink of losing much of its appeal if we continued down this road we were on. @SpeakerJohnson it’s your turn to get this bipartisan bill thru the House.

[Saving College Sports @SavingCollSprts]

College sports just scored another big win.

The bipartisan Protect College Sports Act passed the Senate 77-22 and is now headed to the House.

Let’s finish the job and keep college sports special!

[Saving College Sports @SavingCollSprts]

Seth Levinson’s new piece lays out why some special interests are attacking the bi-partisan Protect College Sports Act. The answer is simple: the bill protects student-athletes, cracks down on abusive practices, and keeps an estimated $35 million a year in student-athletes’ pockets rather than unregulated agents’ fees. https://t.co/hd2oEvq2u2

[Tim Brando @TimBrando]

Fair and honest, and not picking a side also the right he and all of us have. I applaud him for answering. I don’t mind professing my being a Republican nor do I care if those on the left vilify me for admitting to it. This bill isn’t perfect. However it’s gonna solve about 80 %of the issues Intercollegiate Athletics faces. A little like expanding to 24 teams, many don’t like it, but it’s happening. @SenTedCruz has the votes and in @SenatorCantwell he has help across the aisle. 👊🎧🎙️🏈

[Saving College Sports @SavingCollSprts]

There’s nothing else quite like college sports, and Matthew @McConaughey knows what makes it so special.

The rivalries. The traditions. The moments that bring us together.

“America, we created magic. Now it’s up to us to preserve it.”

Pass the bipartisan Protect College Sports Act.

[Saving College Sports @SavingCollSprts]

Yesterday’s overwhelming 74-24 bipartisan vote sent a clear message. Protecting the future of college sports isn’t a partisan issue. The momentum is real. Now let’s finish the job and save college sports.

[Cody Campbell @CodyC64]

Today’s Senate's sweeping, overwhelming, and bipartisan 74-24 vote a to open debate on the Protect College Sports Act shows that stabilizing college sports is a priority that unites Americans, and one that transcends our political and geographical divides. I'm truly grateful to all the stakeholders who have come together to help make the case for this great American institution — and to all those who have improved the bill throughout the process. I look forward to a robust debate in the Senate, then on to the House with the Senate's strong backing, and ultimately to the President’s desk!

[Saving College Sports @SavingCollSprts]

College sports can’t afford more chaos and delay. @Morehouse graduate and longtime sports advocate Lamell McMorris makes the case for why Congress needs to pass the Protect College Sports Act and protect the future of student-athletes and HBCUs. Worth the read: https://t.co/KK2DNdAYob

[Saving College Sports @SavingCollSprts]

Coach @DeionSanders is right. It is time for Congress to pass the Protect College Sports Act.
