When the Supreme Court of the United States overruled the physical presence requirement in its decision on South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc. (June 21, 2018), it removed the barrier preventing states from taxing remote sales. However, it provided little guidance on how states should or could go about taxing sales by sellers with no physical presence in the state.

Here is updated, detailed news from several states regarding the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in South Dakota v Wayfair, et al [see my 6/22/18 post for more on the case].
