Most certainly they can challenge it! There are many ways that a spouse can protect their rights. In most cases there are homestead rights and dower rights. Consult a probate attorney in your area!

She is certainly entitled to do so. I don't believe that any state allows a lawful spouse to be completely dis-inherited.

Do you have the right to legally challenge the involuntary commitment of your same-sex spouse?
Yes, in states where same-sex marriage is legally recognized, a same-sex spouse has the same standing as any other spouse and may file suit to contest civil commitment.
If your husband dies can you receive his assets even if his will states otherwise?
Generally, a spouse cannot be disinherited in the United States. If the surviving spouse was omitted from receiving under the will or was given an unusually small portion they can elect to take an intestate share. You need to check your state laws concerning "election by spouse". You can check the laws of intestacy for your state at the related question link below.

What if your spouse refuses to pay taxes on earned income?
I suggest not filing a joint return. Using the Married Filing Separately filing status will not allow you to claim some tax benefits and you won't have the benefits of combining your income, but it will save you if your spouse is audited. If you file jointly, you will be fully responsible for the taxes on the omitted income. Filing a joint return creates something called "joint & several liability" which means you are both responsible for the entire tax liability, even if it's later adjusted because one spouse omitted income or committed tax evasion. Read IRS Publication 971 to find out the difficulty of not being held responsible for your spouse's actions. That's why I recommend not filing a joint return with your spouse. The benefits will not be worth the cost if they are caught evading taxes.
