Where are the mommy wage penalties biggest?
The mountain west, suburban northeast, and Tennessee

Interested to see the data on what the baselines are with/without children, too. That is, does the paper (which I can't see) explain whether the penalty is more the result of differences in how much childless women work/earn, or differences in how much women with children do?
