Every single state employee’s salary in the state of California is public. Look it up yourself: sacbee.com/statepay (warning, horrible search mechanism).

The UC system alone has 250,000 people. Student salary data is the only data anonymized.

Making salary data public is the only way to go. Anything else is a poor half measure that will probably not solve the problem they are trying to address.
