Until a conservative judge slaps it down

Its a NYC law so a judge wont slap it down.. It just is supposed to have a ripple effect across the country.

It seems to me that it’s Colorado’s law that’s having a ripple effect across the country as other places start to copy it.
But it’s NYC so it’s the one making news a year later of course.

A law in NYC affects a lot more people than a law in Colorado though as also every major corporation and finance firm has a location in NYC while most don't have any in Colorado.

Right. And who did they look to for inspiration for the law? Maybe the only state with the law in place?
This is like saying that Colorado legalizing weed didn’t have much of an impact and it was NY legalizing that actually changed things.

You’re changing what I was saying and you’re right about what you’re saying.
I said Colorado started the ripple effect, not NY. My proof is that NY and CA passed laws a year AFTER Colorado passed theirs and saw success. There is no doubt that NYC’s will have a larger effect.
Since an enormous amount of writers live in Brooklyn there tends to be a bias in media with regards to the amount of focus NY gets and the center of the country often gets ignored.

Who started the ripple effect? Was it the place that passed the law first and already cause tons of global and national companies to start posting salary ranges starting a year ago? Or the places that just copied it?
For example the S&P 500 company I work for operates in like 20 states and in a couple other countries. Because of the Colorado law we post ranges in all those places now. It wasn’t the NY law that caused that.

It won’t because it won’t change anything in reality. It’s a Pyrrhic victory for employees.

Pay transparency is a terrible idea that will actually reduce salaries in the long run. I don’t understand why you people have such a difficult time thinking ahead or how this will negatively effect people. Also, how do you expect people with experience moving to a different company to negotiate their salaries now? This is going to effect those people as well. Such a stupid idea.

What is your idea to make things better?

Way better than before, it makes it far easier to get paid more as you can filter out any jobs that isn't a pay raise and only apply for jobs that would actually pay more.
If a job isn't willing to post publicly that they would pay you more than a previous company, you wouldn't be able to negotiate a pay increase anyway.
