Warner | W000805 | www.warner.senate.gov | warner | https://www.warner.senate.gov/news/press-releases/ | scraper | WASHINGTON – U.S. Sen. Mark R. Warner (D-VA) released the following statement after voting for the Protect College Sports Act: “College athletics provide incredible opportunities for student-athletes, serve as a critical pipeline for Team USA, and bring beloved traditions to communities across Virginia. I’ve long understood their importance – as governor, I worked to make sure Virginia Tech had a place in the newly expanded ACC. “The current disorder in college sports isn’t serving athletes, schools, or fans well. This bill isn’t perfect, but it provides needed stability while protecting athletes’ ability to earn compensation from their name, image, and likeness, safeguarding scholarships, expanding guaranteed access to health care, and protecting athletes from predatory agents. I’m also glad to see strong protections for women’s and Olympic sports, and I believe this bill represents an important step toward a fairer and more sustainable future for college athletics.” ### | 1 | 2026-09-16T09:43:13Z | 2026-09-16T09:44:22Z |
