In a landmark opinion, Whole Women's Health v. Hellerstedt, the Supreme Court weighed in and took some important steps toward better aligning its decisions ("the law on the books") with the reality of what is going on in the country ("law in action"). [...] Justice Breyer's opinion for a 5-justice majority in Whole Women's Health is an explicit course correction.
