Democratic Rep. Steve Cohen (Tenn.) moved on Wednesday to force a House vote to protect the special counsel investigating Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, as uncertainty looms over whether Trump may fire Robert Mueller.

Cohen's petition asks for House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) to call a vote on a bill, called the Special Counsel Integrity Act, preventing the firing of Mueller without just cause.

4. Hey, Cohen's a good guy, on the judiciary com. Take a look at this.

Just one second glancing at the graph (I can't copy it in) should be informative. He's on the ethics committee as well as the judiciary committee, and assuming this's just posturing is unjust.

Note that this graph only charts the ideology of legislation he's sponsored or cosponsored, lots more to know. His ratings from advocacy organizations are just below it.
