Summary
Congressman Steve Cohen announced that Defend The Vote Action Fund gave him an "A" on its 2026 legislative scorecard, the highest rating the group awards. The announcement, published by Quiver Quantitative on October 8, 2026, was issued as a press release. Cohen represents Tennessee's 9th Congressional District, according to his House.gov materials.

The advocacy group said the rating reflects support for legislation aimed at reducing corruption and protecting voting rights. It judged members of Congress on their backing of anti-corruption measures and on votes affecting election integrity, voting rights, and public accountability. Cohen said he welcomed the recognition and argued that voting rights are "under attack" in some places, including Tennessee.

Quiver's coverage also includes campaign finance data from Cohen's second-quarter FEC disclosure, filed July 15, 2026. The filing shows $109.1K in fundraising, of which 64.3% came from individual donors. Quiver ranked this as the 700th-largest fundraising total among all Q2 reports it has tracked this year. Cohen reported $257.2K in spending, ranking 405th, and $1.8M in cash on hand at the end of the period, ranking 242nd.

Quiver estimates Cohen's personal net worth at $10.5M as of October 8, 2026. These figures are Quiver's own estimates and are not drawn from a filing.
