Congressman Steve Cohen is a fourth-generation Memphian who has served on the Shelby County Commission, in the Tennessee General Assembly and, since 2006, in the U.S. House of Representatives from the 9th District.

Throughout my career in politics, I have always worked to amplify the voice of the voters that I have been fortunate enough to represent. In that spirit, I urge everyone to vote against the creatively worded charter amendments on the ballot in the Nov. 6 election.
