UT and TX are the youngest states, and both will show substantial growth even absent high domestic immigration or intl. immigration.
But there are no real "policy lessons" here. UT has LDS high birthrates and TX has high Mexican-American birthrates. They have enormous LDS and Mexican-American youth populations.
We'll all be dead, but in a few generations I could see NY and NJ with similar demographic trends via Hasidic Jews. Their populations are still too small to matter, but their exponential growth will eventually matter. Maybe also Amish states like PA and OH, but they don't reproduce like Hasidics, and they're much more mobile.
