So it's not clear where Clear could go if they can't expedite clients through either regular or TSA Pre lines and there's not an obvious (to me?) way they could operate their own whole private security checkpoints.
Then again, LAX has shenanigans like PS - see https://reserveps.com/ - that have a whole private terminal with private security for people flying public, where they drive you right to your (Delta/United/American) flight, so maybe that's the direction Clear goes?
The bill text introduces no new, privately-operated security line; it only says that new contracts can't be made with companies that let clients skip the security lines. https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtm...
