To clarify:

The "heartbeat rule" is a policy that Alabama is the first state to implement since Roe v Wade, but has been brought up in numerous conservative platforms previously. It outlaws all abortions past 6 weeks from conception, which is the point where the heartbeat is first noticeable. However, this is also before most pregnancies are detected, so that many women are likely going to get caught in the unfortunate situation of not being aware that they were pregnant until it is too late to legally be able to do anything about it.

The purpose of the bill is partially to enact the heartbeat rule as law, but it is also an attempt to get an abortion court case to the Supreme Court (which, thanks to Trump being in the White House and McConnell being in control of the Senate, now has a definite conservative majority) in an attempt to overturn the landmark Roe v Wade decision. If it succeeds, it will allow any state to institute severe restrictions on when, where, how, and why an unwilling mother can abort her fetus.

No, it is not a good law. It is condemning unwitting women into an 18 year obligation without their knowledge or consent.

Unwilling mothers can sometimes be bad mothers, and a lack of planning might mean that a poor child is left in an unloving household. It puts the child at risk of an unnecessarily traumatic childhood.

This ignores the even more blatant flaw that it means that the government is regulating an intensely personal decision, which is something that it seems most Republicans don't want the government to do ("don't regulate my guns," "don't regulate my religion," the "Don't Tread On Me" movement in general).
