Congressman Cohen Scores Perfect 100 Percent on Retiree Issues

WASHINGTON - Congressman Steve Cohen (TN-9) received a perfect 100 percent on the Alliance for Retired Americans 2025 scorecard. He has a 99 percent lifetime score with the group. Every other member of the Tennessee Congressional Delegation, including its two senators, received scores of zero (0 percent) in 2025.

The Alliance looked at House votes to gut health and safety programs, cut nursing home and nutrition program spending, efforts to disenfranchise voters, cuts to home-based health services and to provide federal workplace security programs including retirement benefits, among other issues.

Congressman Cohen made the following statement:

"I am pleased to see my positions on issues important to senior citizens are being recognized by the Alliance for Retired Americans. As Trump and his acolytes in the Republican Congress work to give tax breaks to the rich at the expense of our safety net programs for our elderly residents, you can count on me standing up for, and voting for, what's right. I appreciate the 99 percent lifetime score from the Alliance and pledge to continue to work hard for our seniors."
