Survey: Louisiana Is America’s Worst State For Women
We recently reported on a poll by US News & World Report that Louisiana is the worst state in the union. That, apparently, goes double if you're female. Wallet Hub reports, the Bayou State is America's worst state for women. The report says Louisiana has the 2nd worst rate in the nation for women living in poverty. We also have the 4th shortest life expectancy for women. The quality of women's hospitals in our state is ranked 32nd. Click here for the full report.
