Bloomberg Law (available to Stanford Law School users by personal name and password) has 50-state surveys or report builders, which allow you to compile a state's laws and regulations on a range of topics. One important thing to note about this tool is that while you can create reports for all 50 states, you cannot create a single report that includes multiple states. You will need to create each report individually and then do the comparison work manually.
To access, click on "Browse" in the upper left hand corner of the home page.
Next, click on "Practice Centers."
You will see a list of the available practice centers. Click on the Practice Center that encompasses your topic of interest to identify whether there is a 50-state survey or chart builder that suits your needs. For example, you could go into "Labor & Employment."
Under "State & Local Resources," select "State Law Report Builder."
You can then select a jurisdiction and topic of interest to create you report.
