Note: Marginal effect estimates are percentage points relative to the year prior to effective date and states that never enacted the policy of interest. Year 0 refers to the first four‐quarter period during which the policy was in effect. These marginal effects are plotted in Figures 1, 2, 3.

Abbreviation: Est., estimate.
