How much autonomy do Physician Assistants actually have, and how does that vary by state or workplace?

I want to become a Physician Assistant for my long term career goal. I would like to know how much autonomy PAs have because my level of autonomy will determine how much independence, responsibilities, and decision-making authority I have in patient care. It also varies widely by state and workplace, which can significantly impact my stress level, job satisfaction, and overall career experience.
