There is a controversy in metaethics as to whether moral propositions (and thus the propositions of Rawls’s theory) can be true or false. Rawls wants to avoid this controversy in metaethics, and so he brackets the “truth-status” of his claims. Email me if you would like a more detailed answer to this question.
