It’s not illegal in the US either, but you can still be sued by employers for doing it.
On what grounds? Surely no one with a regular job would sign a contract prohibiting them from discussing the details of their employment.
And it wouldn’t matter if they did. Such contracts are not legal in the US. In fact, employers can be fined simply for requesting an employee sign a contract that restricts their right to discuss salary.
You don’t need a contract. In the United States, anyone can sue anyone for anything. No laws need to have been broken nor contracts breached.
