Catholic Cardinals have nothing to do with states. A Catholic Cardinal is appointed by the Pope to be on his personal staff. A Cardinal is a member of the College of Cardinals, and they are appointed as the Pope's advisors, and in the case of the absence of a Pope, the Cardinals go into the conclave to elect a new Pope.
There are areas of the United States that are designated as dioceses. In each diocese, a Bishop is appointed by the Pope to manage that diocese. If a Bishop also happens to be a Cardinal, then that diocese would be headed by a Cardinal. "Cardinal' is a designation that simply means he is a member of the Pope's personal staff. A Cardinal is also a BIshop, and this is his major role.
