.MaddowBlog: The Supreme Court is allowing opponents of Texas' abortion ban to challenge it in court, but the ban will remain in effect as the case it litigated.
The Supreme Court ruled Friday that a lawsuit by abortion providers challenging Texas' near-total ban on the procedure can move forward, a victory for opponents of the law.... The justices did not decide whether the law violates the Constitution, an issue that was not presented in the case., unlike the usual abortion bans approved by GOP policymakers, Texas Republicans tried to shield their ban by shifting enforcement of the law from the state to ordinary citizens.
According to the Lone Star State's abortion ban, a random person, effectively deputized by Texas Republicans, could sue any of these people for $10,000 — plus attorneys' fees — turning anti-abortion activists into bounty hunters. But at its core, this is a procedural step, not a ruling on the merits. The justices didn't say Texas' law is unconstitutional; they said the law can be challenged in court.
