No. SCOTUS normally doesn't get involved at all.

Keep in mind (it might have been said above) that these two rulings don't conflict as applied, as they address different plaintiffs, and in fact they do so explicitly, as if the two judges were taking pains not to step on each other's toes.

There's nothing unusual about different regions of the US being covered by different laws. This is just an example of that, preliminarily, while the judicial system continues work on the case, so it's nothing dramatic that SCOTUS MUST address.
