Some states don't tax income, like my state of Florida. They don't much care about universal healthcare, because most of their residents are already on a sort of universal healthcare if you're the right age: Medicare. I'm unsure if there's a political will to enact taxes in this state to pay for healthcare when there's only a sales tax in existence (for citizens).

States have autonomy in creating any kind of sanction they want, as long as it is constitutional, but more practically as long as no judge finds that it is unconstitutional.
