show labels for all US states?

I cannot get labels to appear. My current code is:

$(document).ready(function(){
    $('#map').usmap({
        showLabels: true,
        stateStyles: {
            fill: '#F0EFED',
            'stroke': '#60605f'
            },
        stateHoverStyles: {
            fill: '#d3e7fb'
            },
        stateSpecificHoverStyles: {
            'RI': {fill: 'red'},
            'MA': {fill: 'red'}
            },

         // The click action
        click: function(event, data) {
            window.open("https://someurl.com"+data.name);
        }
    });
});

Edit:

So it appears that the showLabels: true property actually refers to the block labels for the small northeastern states. By setting it to false, those labels disappear. Is there any way to show labels for the each state in the US?
