INFO:
A first-of-its-kind law that requires influencers who feature their children to pay them for their work is now in effect in Illinois. The bill, which went into effect on July 1, amends the state's Child Labor Law to include children who are featured on their parents' or caregivers' social media. More specifically, it requires that children age 16 and under be compensated if, within a 30-day period, they are in at least 30% of a video or online content for which the adult, whether a parent or caregiver, is being paid.
