They can pass a federal ban by simple law.

Not really.  They can pass a federal ban, but can't impose it on the states, so it would be meaningless and purely symbolic ... just as we have the federal law banning marijuana, but then various states permit it.  Such a federal law would have the same status.

Mitch McConnell said a federal ban is possible.  I think he knows how laws work and what SCOTUS ruled on:

Cf. above.  Federal Ban is always possible, but it would be entirely meaningless, as based on the disastrous SCOTUS ruling, it cannot be imposed on the states.

Yeah, Constitutional Amendment is the only way, short of overturning this overturning, to outlaw abortion across the nation.  And, of course, we know what would happen if that came about.  Blue States would refuse to accept it anyway and there would be a secession from the US and/or possible cινιℓ ωαr.

Let them go.  We don't need them.

They could always join Canada.

Lots of libs are claiming they'll be moving to Blue States that allow abortion.  I was hoping that would be one result of this.  Don't (or do) let the door hit you on the ass as you leave.  Of course, the liberals were all claiming they would leave the US after Trump beat Hillary in 2016 ... and yet they're still here.

I'd love to see them secede.  Their departure would strengthen the economy of what remains of the Red State union immeasurably, and their economy would collapse within a decade, as they're reduced to third-world status.  Then they'll be trying to immigrate illegally into the Red States just like the Mexicans try to do today.  Red States would have to build a wall to keep the liberals out.

My "boycott the blue states" proposal is just a personal preference.  I do keep in mind that many good people, who love God and love the unborn, are stuck there.  But at the same time, if I have a pressing need to go there, I'm not going to cut off my nose to spite my face, and I shall spend the money I have to (lodging, food, etc.) while I am there.  My son has been agitating to go to NYC --- "no, we can NOT rent a car, you don't want a car in Manhattan, trust me, having driven there, I know what I'm talking about" --- and I have told him that, yes, we can go, we will take the train, and stay at the Leo House, which is safe and reasonably priced, Catholic-affiliated guesthouse on the West Side.
