SPRINGFIELD, Ill. – Millions of dollars go into college sports each year. However, Illinois student athletes never received compensation for their dedication to sports and the classroom until now.
Gov. JB Pritzker signed a bill into law Tuesday changing that rule. Sponsors say the Student-Athlete Endorsement Rights Act is about equity and fairness for athletes. The new chapter begins this Thursday, July 1.
College athletes will have the opportunity to hire agents and sign endorsement deals using their name, likeness, image, or voice.
“Not only is it necessary, but we’ve been discussing this for quite a while,” noted Speaker Emanuel “Chris” Welch (D-Hillside). “And it’s long, long past due to see our athletes receive the recognition and compensation that they deserve.”
