The first bill outlaws all non-competes and garden leave would fall under it. The most they could do is offer it as a form of severance where you get to sit on your butt for 6 months conditionally. The second bill would allow for garden leave aka compensated non-competes. It just codifies the "don't try any non-compensated/good faith aspect".
