Elijah Cummings actually said...

"We're better than that. We are a better country than that. And we are a better committee than that."

"I believe our committee's work should be a responsible effort to obtain the facts and a responsible effort to find the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth."

"I would mourn for what could have been."

"When I hire people, I hire the brightest and I hire people with compassion, and then I let them do their job."
