Would a federal abortion law pass the Supreme Court?

Asked by Smashley (12414points) June 24th, 2022

Federal bans on abortion have been proposed in the past, but the more salient issue now is whether abortion can be ensconced in federal law. It would seem the Supreme Court, who have much less interest in the commerce clause than courts of old, would just hold with today’s decision, reiterate that it’s not in the constitution, therefore it is a state decision (10th amendment).

Is there any chance in this direction, or is it just about keeping up the fight until there is a chance to remake the Court?
