Rep. Cohen (TN-9) from Memphis Co-Sponsors DREAM Act!!

We are so pleased to announce that Rep. Steve Cohen (TN-9) has become the first Tennessee Representative to co-sponsor the DREAM Act (H.R. 1751)! Joining 104 others in the House, Rep. Cohen has made a strong statement in support of equal access to education and a brighter future for our youth.

Rep. Cohen has taken leadership on an issue that affects thousands in his district and throughout the nation. Hopefully, Rep. Cohen’s stance will persuade other TN Congressmen, like Nashville’s Jim Cooper, to do the same.

If you live in Rep. Cohen’s district, please thank him for his support! You can call his office at (202) 225-3265, or email him through this link: http://bit.ly/4gkLnk
