Welllll...maybe...and maybe not.

Law School Course 101 is "Straining at Gnats and Swallowing Camels".

If the bill passes into law, it will be the law of the state unless and until it
is successfully challenged in a relevent court of law.

I carefully use the word "successfully". As seen nearly every day throughout the
land, judges make incorrect and unconstitutional decisions in seemingly slam 
dunk
cases. Sometimes it is ignorance, but mostly it's about politics.

If this becomes law, whoever challenges it had better have deep pockets. The
political climate in California tends to favor goofy stuff like this. It may 
have
to make it's way into the Federal courts to be successfully challenged. And you
better hope that the case isn't heard in the San Francisco Circuit.
