Dear John,

After years of fighting against the NCAA’s exploitation of Black student-athletes, the California Assembly approved the Fair Pay to Play Act this week! If signed into law, this historic bill would allow student-athletes to earn profit from their own names, images, and likenesses for the first time.
But the NCAA is doing everything in its power to keep the bill from being signed by the governor. This is a manipulative attempt to scare legislators into not passing the bill so that the NCAA can continue to make billions of dollars off of the backs of Black student-athletes. Enacting this bill in California would pave the way for similar legislation throughout the country, advancing ethical treatment of our student-athletes.
Send a letter directly to Governor Newsom demanding he sign this bill into law!
Because of thousands of Color Of Change members like you, who took action, we sent hundreds of letters to the California Assembly and over 20,000 petition signatures supporting the Fair Pay to Play Act.
Now, we need the voices of all Color Of Change members to demand that the Governor signs the bill to make it the law.
Color Of Change members have been fighting against the NCAA’s exploitation of Black student-athletes for years. This is our moment to secure victory for our Black student-athletes.
Demand that Governor Newsom sign the Fair Pay to Play Act today!
Until justice is real,
Brandi, Rashad, Arisha, Evan, Johnny, Eesha, Samantha, Marcus, FolaSade and the rest of the Color of Change team
