Cohen, Steve

Cohen, Steve is a Democratic Representative representing Tennessee, District 9. They serve on 2 committees, including House Committee on the Judiciary and House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.

They have raised $145K in campaign contributions, with most of it from individual donors. The biggest industry source is transportation, contributing $7K. Organizations spend $196.5 million lobbying on topics their committees oversee. The biggest areas are copyright/patent and law enforcement/crime. This reflects the lobbying ecosystem around their committee work, not money paid to them directly.

They vote in most roll calls, participating in 90% of roll calls. They frequently work across the aisle, with 51% of their co-sponsored bills involving members of the other party.

They have filed 130 stock transaction disclosures since 2007. These are required by the STOCK Act, which mandates members of Congress report securities trades. 4 former staff members from their office now work as lobbyists. Combined, they represent $9.1 million in lobbying activity. Outside groups (like Super PACs) have spent money on their races: $10 spent supporting them. This spending is independent of their campaign.

Overall, they have a typical financial footprint for a representative. The biggest factors are stock trading disclosures and former staff becoming lobbyists.
