Supporters of College Sports Bill Launch Super PAC

The PAC launched last month and hasn't yet reported any donations.

Supporters of College Sports Bill Launch Super PAC

A new Super PAC called College Sports United PAC has been established to support the passage of the Protect College Sports Act in the House of Representatives without any amendments, according to Alex Fulton, who leads the organization. This is believed to be the first and only Super PAC dedicated to advocating for college sports issues.

Fulton, who has a background in politics and college sports, aims to ensure House members understand the significance of the bill and its importance. The PAC plans to target those who have publicly opposed the legislation and intends to pressure constituents through advertising, voter contact, and other means to secure their support.

The organization was registered with the Federal Election Commission on September 22 and has received pledges, with its first funds expected by the end of the week. While it is the first Super PAC focused exclusively on college sports, other financial entities, such as Texas Tech university board chairman Cody Campbell's 501(c)(4) group Saving College Sports and the NCAA, are also actively lobbying for or against the bill.
