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?

Until we hit a critical mass of states with this legislation.
Call your representative if you live in a state that hasn’t passed such legislation yet.
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.
