I think it's a bad law and he's making a big mistake. I'm still a fan though.

Thanks for the link. Scary to see that the state is re-drafting these laws specifically to find loopholes in the constitutional definitions of freedom of speech. Check out this other loophole:
> The act does not apply to contracts worth less than $1,000, or to companies that offer to provide the goods or services for at least 20 percent less than the lowest price quoted by a business that has complied with the certification requirement.
So, a contractor if free to boycott as long as they cost the taxpayer a little bit less.
