Are there any states in the US that currently require all persons to wear a helmet on bicycles?

I get the feeling I'm gonna hate myself for asking this question, but I am curious.

A simple question with a simple answer (http://www.bhsi.org/mandator.htm).

(edit)From a quick scan I think the answer is no. Washington state seems to have a lot of all-ages towns.(/edit)
