Now what can happen is the government federally can create poison pill scenarios where the states have to abide by certain standards to get funding for things, to comply with executive orders or other federal laws.

You are correct. It's now a state issue. On the flip side, if California passed a law that you could abort a baby 1 minute before birth (making this up), there's nothing the federal government could do about it.
The EO is a ploy for votes. "We're doing something about this and if you vote in 2 more pro-choice senators, we can really do something about it."
They had to do something as they were getting destroyed in public opinion for allowing this to happen. The EO is pulling the wool over someone's eyes.
