If this passes, California (especially the SF Bay Area) will lose one of its biggest advantages. It’s already been losing it’s nice climate over the years.

  California has already said non-competes are unenforceable: https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-bonta-reminds-employers-and-workers-noncompete-agreements-are https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-bont...

    The theory of California losing an advantage is that California’s stance on noncompetes is an advantage, that it would lose if it were the national rule.

    If I read them charitably, maybe it's a "CA has a competitive advantage by having saner labor protections", an advantage which would be lost (relatively) as everyone in the nation would get it. …which … great!

    That's their point. Non-competes being unenforceable is the biggest advantage California has over every other state that has been trying to set up their own "silicon valley" for the last N decades. If the law is forced on them, they might actually succeed.
