It depends on your filing status and modified adjusted gross income (MAGI). Please see 

2020 - Amount of Roth IRA Contributions You Can Make for 2020.

 

If you cannot make Roth contributions because of your income then you might want to consider a backdoor Roth IRA Please see How do I enter a backdoor Roth IRA conversion? and What Is a Backdoor Roth IRA? for additional information.
