I can get maybe blocking one state but New York AND Colorado? I'm sure California or some other larger, more progressive state will eventually make the swap too. Eventually you start cutting yourself off from not just large swaths of the american workforce, but also disproportionately from the types of hires you need (assuming remote hires still).
According to the article, California already has a similar law. I didn't dig into the details of it. Relevant bit:
I had a feeling CA had something similar but couldn't recall and couldn't be bothered to google in the moment on my phone lol
It is required for employers here in Washington. But if the company is headquartered in a state where it is not required, they do not have to list it.
