Before New York joins the ranks of California, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Oklahoma as the fifth state with a complete ban on employee noncompetes, I took the opportunity to write to NY Governor Hochul to explain why caution is warranted.

So far this year, there have been 65 noncompete bills pending in 25 states — excluding the two pending federal noncompete bills, D.C.’s new law to ban most noncompetes, and any proposed bills that are circulating, but have not yet been filed. Five bills have died — leaving the current tally at 59 noncompete bills still pending in 21 states. Today’s post covers the three bills pending in New York, including New York’s late-breaking proposal to ban virtually all noncompetes.
