On Friday, House Republicans delayed a vote on the Student Compensation and Opportunity through Rights and Endorsement (SCORE) Act.

But what is the SCORE Act? And what does it do?

The SCORE Act is a proposed law to make Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) laws the same across all 50 states. Here’s a few things the SCORE Act will do:

• Set standards for direct payment to student-athletes

• Guarantee post-injury medical coverage

• Guaranteed scholarships

• Allow student-athletes to hire agents

• Ban employee status for student-athletes, meaning college athletes are not considered employees

• Require schools to be more transparent about their athletic funding
