Jim Cooper (TN-05) today issued the following statement after the Senate confirmed Travis McDonough as a U.S. District Judge for the Eastern District of Tennessee: Travis McDonough represents the best of East Tennessee. He will make an excellent federal judge, Rep. Cooper said. I am glad the Senate has confirmed him. His talents are needed on the bench right now. An East Tennessee native, McDonough graduated from Vanderbilt University Law School and served in leadership roles at the Miller & Martin law firm in Chattanooga, before leaving to serve as chief of staff for Chattanooga Mayor Andy Berke. Appointed by President Obama, McDonough will succeed Judge Curtis Collier. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
