The federal government and the Supreme Court have the right to dictate that the states may not pass laws that violate a womanās right to a private medical procedure when that procedure causes no harm to any individual or the public as a whole and has no detrimental effect on public health and safety.

Show me in the constitution that gives the federal government that power. Show me in the constitution that says medical procedures are a right.
The argument you are making is one that leads to a can of worms that shouldnāt be opened. If you give the federal government unlimited power to exceed their cotus authority, then thereās no end to what they can force onto the states. This will lead to decisions you donāt like when the other side is in power.
You argue that scotus and the federal government had the power to grant abortion as a right, but then you get upset when that same government uses the same power to recall that decision.
This is why itās a stated issue, unless itās an authority granted, by the cotus, to the federal government
