- No, it only proves that some states have laws on the books
- which are unconstitutional. Many states have failed to
- remove their old abortion laws after Roe v. Wade was
- handed down. The existence of a law doesn't mean that
- the law can be enforced without being challenged.

- Mark Tushnet didn't write an interpretation of the term ``health'',
- he quoted a Supreme Court decision. So did several other authors,
- in the sources which I provided.
