“I’m sending $175,000 to organizers on the front lines trying to win back our state legislatures and fight for fair redistricting,” Warren announced at the Center for American Progress Ideas Conference in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday.

“Democrats believe in a fair fight, and making sure that districts aren’t drawn to cut one party or the other out is a critical first step,” Warren added.

Warren noted that some experts predict that, because of gerrymandering, for Democrats to win a majority in the House in the midterm elections, they will have to beat Republicans by as much as 8 percent of the vote.

“The 2018 election will be a massive uphill climb,” Warren said.

Warren said partisan gerrymandering needs to end, and to do that Democrats have to win back power in state legislatures and be willing to fight gerrymandering in court.

“Democrats should always, always be on the side of making it easier for citizens to vote,” Warren said.

The senator also pitched a “constitutional amendment establishing an unquestioned, unassailable, nationally recognized right to vote.”
