Introduce legislation to ban private equity firms from youth sports, curb predatory pricing practices, and return overcharged money to families.

Today, U.S. Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ), U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT), and U.S. Representative Chris Deluzio (D-PA-17) introduced the Let Kids Play Act, a bicameral bill aimed at stopping Wall Street from pricing kids out of youth sports by banning private equity firms from the space, curbing predatory practices that drive up costs, and returning money to families who have been overcharged.

Booker helped introduce a bill to restrict private equity involvement in youth sports and provide relief to overcharged families.
