COVID case/death rates are logged measured of confirmed COVID-19 cases/deaths per 100,000 people in each state during the month before. “Right-to-Work” is an indicator for whether the respondent’s state is a right-to-work state. “Union Strength” is a logged measure of the strength of teachers’ unions in a given state.
