The Uniform College Athlete Name, Image, or Likeness Emergency Amendment Act of 2025 amends the Uniform College Athlete Name, Image, or Likeness Act of 2022 to allow institutions, conferences, or athletic associations to assist college athletes in selecting and arranging for name, image, or likeness (NIL) agents, as well as in collecting payments from third parties involved in specific NIL agreements. Additionally, the bill removes the previous prohibition against institutions or conferences providing compensation to college athletes for the use of their name, image, or likeness.
Furthermore, the bill amends section 5710 of Title 3 of the District of Columbia Municipal Regulations by delaying the applicability of expanded financial disclosure requirements for certain boards and commissions until January 1, 2026. The act will take effect upon approval by the Mayor and will remain in effect for no longer than 90 days, in accordance with emergency legislation procedures.
