- Mark_B._Cohen abstract "Mark B. Cohen (born June 4, 1949) is a Democratic politician from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He has represented District 202 in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives since June 10, 1974. He is the most senior member in the Pennsylvania General Assembly since the December 27, 2010 death of Sen. Michael O'Pake, one of the most senior state legislators in the United States, and one of the longest serving state legislators in Pennsylvania history. He is one of those who "know Harrisburg," a reporter summarized. Cohen was a Washington, D.C. intern during the Great Society and the War in Vietnam. He is the last of the Watergate Babies in Pennsylvania still serving in the Pennsylvania legislature who were elected to office for the first time in 1974 in the wake of the national backlash against the illegal activities of the Watergate scandal. They helped to make Pennsylvania "among the 22 states that established outside oversight of ethical conduct and/or disclosure requirements of legislators in the post-Watergate 1970s." Cohen is the most senior of the small number of Pennsylvania legislators who started serving before the Reagan Era.Cohen served as a member of the House Democratic leadership from January, 1990, through November, 2010, in the positions of Democratic Caucus Chairman (1990–1992 and 1994–2010) and Majority Whip (1992–1994). No one in Pennsylvania history has been elected as a Democratic Party caucus leader in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives as many times (11) as Cohen was in the 1990s and 2000s.As an elected leader of the House Democratic Caucus for 21 years, he worked to unite an often deeply divided group of Democratic legislators, His efforts sometimes led his colleagues to publicly praise him. His efforts for party unity did not always succeed, either in caucus elections or in public policy In the April 24, 2012 Pennsylvania Democratic primary election, Cohen "comfortably" and "decisively" defeated and "cruised over...by 27 points" the "spirited challenge" with "a whiff of Identity politics" of his "organized" and "energetic" primary opponent and won nomination for a 21st term (20th full term) in the Pennsylvania House. Cohen won his Democratic record-setting 21st term with no Republican opponent in the General Election. Seen as a "valuable asset" in the legislature, Cohen received 63.5% of the vote in the Democratic Primary. This victory came in a year in which "Nationwide, 197 state legislative incumbents lost in their party primaries." In a pre-election interview with the Philadelphia Sunday Sun, Cohen said "The public mission of the Pennsylvania legislature is to help Pennsylvania citizens. We legislators all are, and all should be, judged on how well we accomplish that." His 7 years as Democratic (Majority) Chairman of the House Labor Relations Committee were years of collaborative relationships with other legislators and legislative staff. Michael E. Cassidy, elected to a single House term in 1976 beginning at the age of 21, long served as his executive director.".
