To “redress” (rih-DRES) – from the French for “to straighten” – is to make something right; to repair, make amends, or relieve from.

Example (as used by Pauline Maier in American Scripture: Making the Declaration of Independence): “Before adjourning in October 1774, the First Continental Congress called for the convening of another congress at Philadelphia on May 10, 1775, only if Britain had not redressed the Americans’ grievances.”
