I fear former slave states with GOP MOCs will make this into a partisan issue - to keep mostly Black athletes from gaining more rights in favor of white power structure - not a human rights one. I hope I’m wrong and this reform sails through Congress and into law.

Why do moderators allow this on a sports message board?

The discussion in this thread of possible changes for scholarship athletes is interesting and relevant. But let's please keep partisan political digs out of it.

OF, I'll repeat what CompSci said; let's keep the partisan digs out of it.  The post office and voting rights are at best very tangentially related to the NCAA athletes bill of rights.  And until members of congress come out in favor or against the bill, let's hold off on ascribing views to them.  I don't go around locking threads, but this one is headed in that direction. 

Particularly on this board, Yvonne has been clear that politics should not be discussed.  Debate the merits of the Bill if you like; leave the politics for another board.
