Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill amends an existing law to set new rules for how college athletes in Michigan can earn money from their name, image, or likeness. It prohibits contracts that extend beyond an athlete's eligibility, require dispute resolution in another state, or involve an athlete agent whose contract also extends beyond eligibility. The bill ensures that any disputes related to these contracts must be handled in Michigan under Michigan laws.
