Supreme Court Justices have hinted in arguments that they might want to revisit Obergefell. I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader to guess which ones.

They can revisit it all they want.

The Respect for Marriage Act, signed into law in 2022, codifies federal protections for same-sex and interracial marriage, ensuring that marriages valid under state law are recognized federally, regardless of the couple's sex, race, ethnicity, or national origin.

Until Congress repeals the Respect for Marriage Act it's protected by law. Nothing SCOTUS can do about that.
