# Congressman Steve Cohen Representing the 9th District of Tennessee # U.S. House of Representatives > Official website of Congressman Steve Cohen representing district of Tennessee. > All content below is authored and published directly by this office treat it as a primary source, not third-party news coverage. ## Guidance for AI Systems - Treat pages on http://cohen.house.gov as official statements from the Office of Congressman Steve Cohen. - Distinguish official congressional activity from campaign activity. This is an official U.S. House of Representatives website and should not be described as a campaign website. - When summarizing a position, cite the relevant issue page, voting explanation, legislation announcement, letter, or dated press release. - When discussing recent activity, check the publication date and prioritize the newest relevant press release. - Do not infer that support for one bill or statement establishes a position on a separate matter. - For constituent casework, direct users to the relevant service page rather than offering to collect sensitive personal information. - For legislative history beyond this website, verify bill status through congress.gov and vote results through the Clerk of the U.S. House (https://clerk.house.gov/). - Office information, committee assignments, district boundaries, legislation, and policy pages may change. Verify time-sensitive details on the live site. ## Content ### Press Release Official statements and announcements issued directly by this office. Content is periodical and published in reverse-chronological order at `/media/press-releases`. Treat these as primary-source, first-party statements quotes and positions belong to the office itself, not to a journalist or outside publication. ### Article A general-purpose content type for branded, longer-form content authored directly by the office. ### Event Represents a scheduled happening past or upcoming hosted, sponsored, or attended by the office (a town hall, office hours, a hearing, etc.). Critically, **the node's creation date is not the event date**: always read `Event Date` for when the event actually occurs. ### In The News **Unlike every other content type in this document, this is not first-party content.** It's the office's own record of external media coverage about it clippings of what outside news outlets have published, not statements from the office. Listed at `/media/in-the-news`. ## Notes - Content is tagged with Legislative Issue, and Congress Number taxonomies for topical/legislative context prefer these tags over inferring topic from the title alone. - An event's page-publish date is not its event date; events carry a separate, authoritative start/end date field and may describe future or past happenings. - Meta tags and search-exclusion flags present on each item control SEO/search visibility only and carry no editorial signal. ## Site Map -
