The legislation would require four-year schools and colleges to offer health insurance to athletes who are uninsured for eight years after they graduate. Institutions whose athletics departments generate a certain revenue threshold would be required to pay out-of-pocket expenses. If the institution makes more than $20 million in athletics revenue, it would be required to pay expenses for two years; if it makes more than $50 million, it would be required to pay four years.
that seems surprisingly good?
Booker and some others have their own bill on this, usually they get together when that happens and come up with something.

When my younger son turned five or six we had a birthday party that included a visit to a firehouse. The looks on the faces of the momsâŚchangedâŚwhen we arrived. If there werenât kids there that wouldâve been a different kind of party.
I had a friend who went a bit too far with this. She was attractive, highly educated, and made a lot of money. She went out with a firefighter who looked like he was straight out of one of those calendars. All of her friends would drool over this dude. Ended up marrying him. Divorced in a few years. She was pretty much the only one who didnât see that coming.
That story is almost a trope for guys, but it happens to women too.
