>* Employers would be prohibited from asking about an applicant's pay history

Would they be able to contact previous employer for this information. One of the thing I really hate is the amount of leverage your previous employer has over you.

That is the only good bullet point in my opinion. Otherwise I don't see the positives. It would probably lead to pay depression in any case.
