And companies will still avoid listing a salary, and just say 'Not accepting applicants in Colorado or California' as they do now[1] to get around the Colorado law.
California is over 10% of the US population, and tends to be above average in the things that businesses are looking for. That's going to be a hard ask.
Not to mention, many jobs sites are probably based there, are they going to look too kindly on job listings that disallow their own state?
Maybe. California seems like a bit of a big state to exclude candidates from. Although, I guess for remote work, it might be preferable to get people from low CoL states anyway.
