Does anyone have a good list of state requiring cell phone reimbursement to employees?

Thank you.

California, Illinois, Iowa, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, North & South Dakota, New York, Pennsylvania, and the District of Columbia all require employers to reimburse workers for business expenses, including cell phone and/or internet expenses.  I believe there are several other localities that also have regulations surrounding the reimbursement of business expenses for remote workers, which can also include cell phone expenses.
