Quite possibly. I would go beyond just "possibly" if it was as federal taxing power is more constitutionally limited (for examples Bernie's wealth tax would be unconstitutional). OTOH who knows what judges will let politicians get away with these days. My guess is it doesn't actually pass in the first place so it doesn't even go under judicial review but we'll see.
