‘Butter knife to a gunfight': Democratic lawmaker rips his party's strategy in redistricting battle

During an interview on MSNBC’s "Ana Cabrera Reports," Cabrera asked Casar if Democrats can get "rid of gerrymandering altogether" and also "fight fire with fire," questioning if the party can "have it both ways." "We need to get to fair rules across the nation and not have Democrats showing up with a butter knife to a gunfight," he continued. Casar added that he thinks "California should have an independent commission when Texas has one," and that "New York should have a law that says New York will have an independent commission when Florida has one."
