Nope. A law outlawing a certain practice is not a bill of attainder or ex post facto law, even if the law is designed only to apply to one person or entity. A bill of attainder declares a specific party guilty of a crime without trial. State legislatures have vast police powers, even when they use them in dumb partisan ways like they are in this case.
