The law makes it illegal for drivers to park their cars within 20 feet of a crosswalk, on the side of the street that faces the crosswalk.

A similar rule applies to not parking too closely to stop signs in my area. There aren’t any extra signs or painted curbs, drivers are just expected to ask themselves, is this too close to that stop sign? I don’t see how crosswalks are any different. If you give yourself 2 car lengths from the crosswalk you should be good for most cars.
That’s a law in all states, though. It’s universal. A new law that’s for within 20’ of a crosswalk, on only one side of the road, on unmarked cross walks as well is a lot less clear.
