The unit of observation is a state‐year. The number of observations included in each regression model is 779. Data are unweighted. All models are estimated with least squares and control for state characteristics, state fixed effects, and year fixed effects. 95% confidence intervals that account for within‐state clustering are reported in parentheses.
