Dear Friends,

I'm back in Middle Tennessee for the August recess and look forward to seeing you around the 5th District. In Congress, we addressed several highly polarizing issues in recent weeks, including stem cell research.

I'm very disappointed at the President's decision to veto the bill to expand funding for this vital research. In his almost six years in office, the President has never once vetoed any legislation put forth by Congress --- until now. This bill would have given hope to all families battling illnesses like cancer, diabetes, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. Click here to read more.

I want to hear what you think. Please send me an email or give my office a call at (615) 736-5295. Don't hesitate to let me know if there is anything my office can do for you.

Sincerely,
Jim Cooper
