Colorado could soon join California in allowing college athletes to profit off their names and likenesses.

Republican state Sen. Owen Hill said he and Democratic state Sen. Jeff Bridges are “all in” on introducing a bill next year. So, too, is Alec Garnett, the House majority leader.

“We’ve got a star cast of folks who want to get this thing done,” said Hill, of Colorado Springs.
