Democratic election lawyer Marc Elias has long decried the evils of gerrymandering.
Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney, the chairman of the DCCC who worked with Elias to redraw New York's maps, accused Republicans last year of using gerrymandering to win control of the House.
Elias has repeatedly accused Republicans of partisan gerrymandering.
Elias Law Group has raked in millions of dollars since Elias launched it in August.
Prior to the DCCC and Elias joining forces with Maryland Democrats to push for the gerrymander in court, state-level Democrats jettisoned their pledge for a transparent redistricting process and crafted their maps almost entirely behind closed doors and with no public input.
In Nevada, Elias Law Group defended an ad from an advocacy group aligned with Schumer's Senate Majority PAC that wildly inflated Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto's accomplishments.
Elias Law Group also represented Virginia Accountability PAC, a group that aired deceptive ads during the Virginia gubernatorial race to portray Republican Glenn Youngkin as soft on gun rights.
