Probably due to the pandemic, the Illinois Legislature passed few laws important to business in Illinois and effective January 1, 2022. They include:

  • Increasing the minimum wage to $12.00 per hour;
  • Making non-compete agreements generally not enforceable against employees earning less than $75,000.00;
  • Enacting new restrictions on vaping sales;
  • Requiring health insurers to cover mental illness and addiction treatment;
  • Barring or restricting early termination fees for many utilities and services; and
  • Making Juneteenth (June 19) a state holiday.
