U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper (TN-5) made the following remarks today after being sworn in as part of the 114th Congress:

"Congress must come together for the good of the country. Our job is to keep America number one and to give hardworking citizens a chance to succeed. The economy is making progress, but wages are flat and living expenses are soaring. Congress should work to reverse those trends and preserve America's greatness."
