Bill overview
This bill, known as the GOALS Act, aims to ensure fair compensation for members of the U.S. Women’s and Men’s National Soccer Teams. It prevents federal funds from being used to support the 2026 World Cup unless the U.S. Soccer Federation commits to providing equal pay to these athletes. The bill seeks to address a long-standing dispute over pay equity between the federation and its national teams. It effectively uses funding as leverage to force a resolution.
