Noncompetition agreements are common tools used by employers to prevent former employees from unfairly competing against them. Traditionally, many states have allowed employers to require employees to sign noncompetes as long as they were reasonable in scope and protected an employer’s legitimate business interests. In turn, employers often required every employee to sign a noncompete even when it was unlikely that certain employees, particularly those in lower-wage positions, really posed much of a future competitive threat. In recent years, in response to the overuse of noncompetes by employers, several states have passed legislation limiting their use – with the trend most acutely taking hold in the area surrounding Washington, D.C.

An air of uncertainty hung above the United States on November 3, 2020 no one knew how the presidential election would play out, how long it would take to decide, when the backlash against the winner would begin, or if it would turn into violence. One thing was relatively certain, though: California would vote overwhelmingly for Joe Biden. Indeed, Biden won the state with 64.6 percent of the vote, a historically large margin.
1 However, there were also several propositions on the 2020 California ballot, the results of which were not as easily predictable. In California, ballot initiatives are a significant part of election season. California ballot measure campaigns take second place to U.S. presidential campaigns in global political spending. This is likely because of the state’s wide influence in U.S. politics and the size of its population.
