Getting rid of non-compete agreements is just allowing American workers have jobs without ridiculous demands from their employers that they abandon their entire livelihoods for a decade after working for them for a few months.

Non-compete agreements are extraordinarily anti-worker, and fundamentally anti-free-market. If you leave your job, you should be allowed to find another similar job without your former employer suing you for having a career.

>What comes next?

Actual workers rights in America, hopefully.
