- March 28, 2020 - Tom Coburn, a former US congressman from Oklahoma and obstetrician, died at his home Saturday, according to a statement from his family. He was 72. Coburn, a Republican dubbed "Dr. No" by his Democratic colleagues, was a staunch fiscal and social conservative who battled lawmakers over money for pet projects in their home states and fought for anti-abortion legislation throughout his career. He served in the US Senate from 2005-2015, after having been a member of the US House of Representatives from 1995-2001. File Photo: United States Senator Tom Coburn, R-Okla., right, accompanied Sen.
