I filed my 2020 taxes and found that my state refund from 2019 was not taxable. Why was that? in all years past I always had to claim my state refund.

If you did not itemize deductions for your 2019 tax return then your 2019 state refund is not taxable.
I did itemize deductions for 2019
Look at your 2019 Form 1040. Did you actually get the itemized deductions or did it use your standard deduction (it is on line 9 of your tax return). If you got itemized deductions on your 2019 return then your state refund is taxable on your 2020 return.
