Did This Courtship Sail?

The Biden administration is taking the Texas anti-abortion law back to the Supreme Court. But didn’t we go through this before? Yes, but as Vox explains, “there are some important legal distinctions between the current challenge to SB 8, known as United States v. Texas, and the Court’s previous order in Whole Woman’s Health v. Jackson allowing SB 8 to take effect. Specifically, the Justice Department argues in its request for relief that the United States is allowed to sue Texas directly, even if private parties may not.” (It’s still a law that was designed to withstand challenges and a SCOTUS that was designed to crush Roe.)
