These are PDFs for each year.

The PDFs are well structured (as least for 2021), but as always, we should inquire with state if they're willing to post the Excel files to avoid PDF scraping.

At least two levels of scraping HTML to get to the PDF, some additional tables in there to ignore and a slightly different table format with less structure in earlier years, but otherwise as described.
