Just days ago, I hosted a discussion on Capitol Hill on #StudentAthleteEquity and #NCAA reform with @JayBilas, @SenatorRomney, @RepRichmond, @RepJohnYarmuth, @TheDrakeGroup, @cbakerswaggy, @JonSolomonAspen, @JoeBriggsEsq, @blhess and @mflexperience. I'd say the @NCAA heard us. https://t.co/PrhDLInai2 — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to have @RepRichmond as a teammate on this. #StudentAthleteEquity — PolitiTweet.org

If scholarships are income, that makes them employees, not student-athletes. This isn’t about income. It’s about basic rights that every other American has to their own name. #StudentAthleteEquity — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks @benshapiro. Though a need for cautiousness until the @NCAA actually acts on their words. #StudentAthleteEquity — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you. Stripping young adults of the dignity of work because of a student loan burden is counter to our American ideals and the ladder of upward mobility. Instead of forcing our future leaders into a debt trap, we should be giving them every opportunity to succeed. — PolitiTweet.org

NOTE: On the #NCAA ruling, nowhere does it say compensation for NIL rights. The NCAA said they would allow student-athletes to “benefit” from publicity rights. Always trust, but verify. #StudentAthleteEquity @NFLPA @NCPANOW — PolitiTweet.org

@MattNorlander Zero impact. We need to ensure this is real action, not a delay tactic. Trust, but verify. — PolitiTweet.org

The NCAA is on the clock, and while they are, we’re going to keep working towards the passage of the Student-Athlete Equity Act to make sure their words are forced into action. #StudentAthleteEquity — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Walker @RepMarkWalker

We clearly have the NCAA’s attention. Now, we need to have their action. While their words are promising, they have used words in the past to deny equity and basic constitutional rights for student-athletes. #StudentAthleteEquity https://t.co/18yWVNJrrS — PolitiTweet.org

While you’re distracted by their impeachment sham, House Dems today are going to pass legislation to use campaign funds to pay themselves MORE salary & benefits. This is after they passed HR1 to force taxpayers to pay for campaigns. They want you to subsidize their lifestyle. https://t.co/lGLejd7xOs — PolitiTweet.org

This legislation I am introducing with @SenHawleyPress will give the @DHSgov the resources necessary to properly prevent foreign abuse of our educational investments and promote America as a leader in innovation. https://t.co/5JmaMwCVjV — PolitiTweet.org

For too long, the United States has turned a blind eye to growing exploitation by nations like China using our academic institutions as a method to steal sensitive and valuable information and technologies. We have a duty to protect American intellectual property. — PolitiTweet.org

Great discussion with Larry Kudlow, Director of the US National Economic Council, to discuss #USMCA. In North Carolina 31,922 jobs depend on manufacturing exports to Canada and Mexico. We need to vote on #USMCAnow. https://t.co/FP7C8K4aZ4 — PolitiTweet.org

From day one this has been a priority for me and it always will be. I have had legislation to combat human trafficking signed into law by both President Obama and President Trump. We will remain diligent in fighting this heinous crime and seeking justice. https://t.co/ncgTDmsaPp — PolitiTweet.org

Additionally, today as @EdLaborCmte debates the Higher Education Act, I will propose an amendment to ensure that #NCAA schools around the country are following state laws with respect to student-athletes’ publicity rights and constitutional protections. https://t.co/08pVRiwizv — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Walker @RepMarkWalker

While they discuss whether or not to give basic publicity rights back to student-athletes, a pittance compared to their profits, they should do the right thing. Lawmakers across the country are watching closely, but not holding our breath. #StudentAthleteEquity — PolitiTweet.org

This is truly a tale of two cities. While an org that brings in more than $1B a year hosts a board meeting, more than 500k student-athletes will today give their all at practices, classes, workouts or games, sacrificing their bodies & minds to further the NCAA’s financial desires — PolitiTweet.org
