Occurrences

The Congressman is also a cosponsor of the Automatic Voter Registration Act... the America Votes Act... and the Weekend Voting Act, which would move election day to a weekend to help ensure that every voice and vote is counted equally.

Cohen backs multiple measures to make voter registration and voting more accessible.

Evidence

The Civil Rights issue page says Cohen is a cosponsor of the Automatic Voter Registration Act, the America Votes Act, and the Weekend Voting Act, and says he introduced the SIMPLE Voting Act to require at least two weeks of early voting.

Official House issue page directly matches all three parts of the claim: automatic voter registration, more flexible voter ID rules, and weekend or expanded voting access.

The official press-releases index shows Cohen actively defending voting rights during the lookback window, including an April 29 statement blasting the Supreme Court's weakening of the Voting Rights Act, a May 13 hearing discussion of gerrymandering and voting rights, and a June 18 statement calling the Callais ruling timing partisan.

Recent official statements show Cohen was still taking concrete voting-rights actions in the window, consistent with ongoing support rather than abandonment or reversal.

Assessments

The promise was to support easier voting access measures, not necessarily to enact them into law. Cohen appears to have fulfilled that by cosponsoring the Automatic Voter Registration Act, the America Votes Act, and the Weekend Voting Act, and by introducing the SIMPLE Voting Act to expand early voting. Those are direct, material actions matching the claim’s three components: automatic voter registration, more flexible voter-ID-related access, and weekend/expanded voting opportunities. Because the officeholder himself took these actions while serving in federal office, this counts as delivered in the same term.
