The Top (and Bottom) 10 States for Term Life Insurance

Independence Day, better known as the Fourth of July, marks the day the thirteen colonies declared their independence from Great Britain in 1776. Although the colonies legally separated on July 2nd, we recognize the 4th as Independence Day because the Declaration of Independence was approved and signed on this day.
