Proposed Bill Would Let Student-Athletes Get Paid

Jason Scott Headshot

A bill proposed by a Washington state legislator would circumvent NCAA rules and allow student-athletes in the state to be paid for endorsements.

According to the Spokane Spokesman-Review, the proposal was drafted by state Rep. Drew Stokesbary. The proposal reads, “The legislature finds that every student enrolled at an institution of higher education in this state should have an equal right: To earn compensation for services provided; to be paid for the use of his or her name, image, and likeness; and to hire agents to represent the student’s interests. The legislature further finds that students should not be compelled to choose between forfeiting these rights and participating in intercollegiate athletic competitions.”
