Elijah Cummings actually said...

"This is the committee on Oversight and Government Reform, reform is so, so vital, particularly at this moment."

"I believe I speak for the entire committee when I say that our commitment to this goal is bipartisan and unwavering."

"The President gave them that leeway. A lot of the problem that we have in the law is because of things that happened when we were trying to pass it."

"But that does not mean we scrap it and throw it out, because people will die."
