Very doubtful, unless the law was written by cretins. THIS Supreme Court would be willing to accept a Federal Law banning — or almost banning — abortions. If Trump and his MAGA Republicans win big in 2022 and 2024 they will probably push such a law … just to punish and “own” liberals and to solidify their crazy religious base. That nutty base believes, as the above commenter makes clear, that every fertilized human egg is a human being and should be protected under the Constitution.
Even prominent rightwing writers in The Federalist have argued that the legal case for a Federal Law against abortion is clear, though some are worried about its “popularity.” Ex-Vice President Pence has always supported such a law.
See my discussion in an earlier thread and some links here:

Even Republicans understand making a federal law against abortion would likely be political suicide. They may put on an act to try and keep their religious base, but they will plan on certain reps to vote against it so they can say they tried.
