These "gotcha!" taxes only affect the upper middle class. The rich have the lawyers and means to avoid them all.

Interesting. Luckily the tax is new as of 2022. I heard that income-tax bearing states like CA and OR pursue the tax bill against folks who finally sell equity in a non-tax state if the stock vested while the individual was in the state w/ the tax.

Is this something that could be fought? I wonder if this is even legal. What if they made it even more strict?

That would depend on how much more strict they made it, wouldn't it? Like if it's legal now, and they made it slightly more strict, it would probably still be legal. But they could make it significantly more strict, to the point it was illegal. So I don't understand what you're asking here. Are you wondering how much more strict they can legally make it?
