Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
Summary
The Workers’ Right to Compete Act stops employers from using non‑compete agreements on employees whose annual cash pay is below $100,000 (adjusted for inflation). It requires employers to tell affected workers the agreements are unenforceable and gives the FTC and state attorneys general tools to enforce the ban. The law leaves room for stronger state protections and still allows confidentiality agreements for trade secrets.
