I hate to sound all Austrian-economicy, but I don't trust most state governments' financial situations right now enough that they wouldn't do some pretty unthinkable things.
Overturning these provisions (and nullifying govt contracts) goes contrary to the US system of finances in which a govt backed guarantee means something.... I can't say it is fool proof or 100% guaranteed...but, I think your chances are pretty good that you won't be hung out to dry.
