My message to Secretary Noem & AG Bondi: Remove ICE from Memphis. ICE isn’t addressing violent crime here, and reports show the people they’re sweeping up aren’t “the worst of the worst.” Immigrants aren’t driving crime in Memphis—they commit less than the general population, here and nationwide.

Trump is blocking the full release of the Epstein files—launching baseless probes to keep parts sealed while pretending to back transparency—while the Senate GOP defends a scheme to give 9 Senators $500k each over old phone metadata. The victims deserve that money—and the public deserves the truth.

Memphis went years without real investment in pedestrian & traffic safety—until we passed the IIJA. I brought home millions since then for city-wide upgrades like better lighting, sidewalks and safer crossings, but now Trump is trying to freeze those programs. I’m fighting to protect every dollar.

Yearly deaths caused by cars and trucks striking pedestrians rose 70 percent between 2010 and 2023, an examination of federal data and other public records by The Post shows.

I introduced the Clean Cloud Act today. Cryptominers & AI data centers are growing fast and straining grids—and Memphis families already face some of the highest energy burdens in the country. My bill ensures new data-center growth is powered by real clean energy, not higher bills for ratepayers.

The vote to release the Epstein files passed 427–1. Good. I've been calling for it for years. But Trump could’ve released them years ago. He didn't need a vote. He's teeing up Pam Bondi to slow-roll this and go after specific political enemies. Enough. The people deserve the truth—all of it.

Federal agencies like the FBI, DEA & ATF can help Memphis because they’re trained for police work. The National Guard isn’t—they're private citizens with jobs and families and they shouldn't be taken away for meaningless work. I welcome today’s ruling and look forward to seeing it upheld on appeal.

I wonder if Senate Republicans who think they deserve $500k from taxpayers for each time their phone was reviewed in connection to January 6, also think these victims should get $500k for each time they were abused by people whose names are being hidden in the Epstein files?

Steve Cohen@repcohen.bsky.socialNov 18(source)

I’m calling on the Trump admin to remove ICE from Memphis. They aren't going after the “worst of the worst" — they’re sweeping up parents, grandparents, workers, even US citizens. Immigrants aren’t driving crime, and ICE isn't helping. They're tearing apart our community & hurting our economy.

The fence is finally down at Overton Park, and the Old Forest Trail is officially open! Proud that this was made possible by the $3M grant award I secured for Overton Park & the Memphis Zoo. This is one of Memphis’ last stretches of true urban forest—these upgrades will support it for generations.
