IL SB1560

Designates outdoor areas of higher education campuses as traditional public forums where expressive activity is permitted freely for noncommercial purposes, so long as conduct is lawful.

Allows institutions to enforce reasonable time, place, and manner restrictions only when they are clear, published, content-neutral, viewpoint-neutral, provide ample alternative means of expression, and permit spontaneous assembly.

Permits the Attorney General and individuals whose expressive rights are violated to bring enforcement actions in court, with minimum damages of $500 for initial violations plus $50 per day for ongoing violations.

Establishes a one-year statute of limitations for lawsuits, with each day a violation persists or a violating policy remains in effect counting as a new violation for purposes of the limitation period.

Amends the Campus Demonstrations Policy Act to require all demonstration policies at State-supported institutions of higher education to comply with the Campus Free Expression Act.
