re: Executive order on College Athletics

Someone decipher what this order will actually change. This seems to be more for show. How is this enforceable?

Now it’s up to Congress to work it out or at least get the discussion going.

It's good that they do such a great job doing that

All this executive order does is tell people to do something about all this.

PROTECTING THE FUTURE OF COLLEGE SPORTS BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE: Today, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order to preserve the unique American institution of college athletics by restoring order, fairness, and stability.

The Order directs Federal agencies to bolster the effectiveness of key college-sports rules on transferring, eligibility, and pay-for-play by evaluating whether violations of such rules render a university unfit for Federal grants and contracts.

Simultaneously, the Order calls on the appropriate governing body to update these rules to restore financial stability and protect the future of all college sports, including women’s and Olympic sports by:

establishing clear, consistent, and fair eligibility limits, including a five-year participation window;

setting structured transfer rules for academic and athletic continuity;
ensuring medical care for student-athletes;

implementing revenue-sharing in a manner that protects and expands opportunities in women’s and Olympic sports;

banning improper financial arrangements including pay-for-play agreements facilitated by collectives and similar entities; and
establishing protections against unscrupulous agent conduct.

The Order directs the Administrator of General Services and the Department of Education to increase data collection across college athletics to ensure compliance.

The Order directs the Chairman of the Federal Trade Commission and the Attorney General to take appropriate enforcement actions.

The Order also calls on Congress to quickly pass legislation to address these critical issues.

At the federal level, an executive order is a directive by the president as the head of the executive branch; such an order governs the actions of federal government officials and federal agencies.

An executive order has much the same power as a federal law but is subject to judicial review and can be overturned if the order lacks support by statute or the U.S. Constitution. Congress can also pass a new law to override an executive order; however, in such a case, the executive order is subject to a presidential veto.

Some policy initiatives require approval by the legislative branch, but executive orders have significant influence over the internal affairs of government—deciding how and to what degree legislation will be enforced, in dealing with emergencies and waging wars, and fine-tuning policy choices in the implementation of broad statutes.

Presidential executive orders, once issued, remain in force until they are canceled, revoked, adjudicated unlawful, or expire on their terms. At any time, the president may revoke, modify, or make exceptions to any executive order.

An executive order can:

Direct agencies on how to implement laws and allocate resources.
Create committees, agencies, and task forces.
Change the administrative structure of committees, agencies, and task forces.
Activate emergency power under national emergencies.
Address military operations and matters of foreign affairs.
An executive order cannot:

Alter the U.S. Constitution.
Direct federal spending outside of congressional approval.
Overturn rulings by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Nullify existing congressional legislation.
Alter the balance of power between Congress and the Judiciary.
Bypass the legislative process by creating a new law.

Did you work for the government during Covid? If you didn’t work for the government then no executive order compelled you to wear a mask. It was probably just your employer

If an executive order means nothing then does title 9 mean nothing? I’m lost.

Bro…title nine is a law. That’s exponentially different than an executive order.
