Calif. bill to pay NCAA athletes takes another step

A bill in California that would make it possible for college athletes to accept endorsement money moved one step closer to becoming law Monday evening. The California State Assembly voted 73-0 in favor of the proposed law known as the Fair Pay to Play Act.
