House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she is "personally devastated" by Cummings' passing and will miss his "warm friendship."
“In the House, Elijah was our North Star. He was a leader of towering character and integrity, whose stirring voice and steadfast values pushed the Congress and country to rise always to a higher purpose," she said in a statement. "His principled leadership as Chair of the Committee on Oversight and Reform was the perfect testament to his commitment to restoring honesty and honor to government, and leaves a powerful legacy for years to come."
“Earlier this year, Chairman Cummings asked us, ‘When we’re dancing with the angels, the question will be asked: in 2019, what did we do to make sure we kept our democracy intact?’ May Chairman Cummings’ strength guide us as we carry on his work to honor the oath and protect our democracy," she said.
RIP Elijah, a towering figure to me, a role model, and an icon

Nancy Pelosi Honors Elijah Cummings: "The President Is Impeached”
‘As our beloved Chairman, Elijah Cummings, and Oversight Committee Chair, our North Star, said when announcing support for this action, “When the history books are written about this tumultuous era, I want them to show that I was among those in the House of Representatives who stood up to lawlessness and tyranny.”
‘When we are dancing with the angels, the question will be, did we – what did we do to make sure we kept our democracy intact?’
#NoOneIsAboveTheLaw
“We did all we could, Elija. We passed the two articles of impeachment. The president is impeached.”
“This is OUR watch” #RestInPowerElijah #WeGotThis

“I’m looking forward to joining with all of you as we travel this road, I often call journey, which I define as life.And there’s a poem that Parren Mitchell said many many years ago that I say sometimes 20 times a day, and it’s a very simple poem, but it’s one that I live by.It says ‘I only have a minute. Sixty seconds in it. Forced upon me, I did not choose it. But I know that I must use it, give account if I abuse it, suffer if I lose it. Only a tiny little minute. But eternity is in it.And so I join you as we move forward to uplift not only the nation, but the world. May God bless you all and may God bless America.” - @repcummings #RIP #ElijahCummings #RepElijahCummings #Congress #CivilRights #PublicService #USA (at Baltimore, Maryland) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3vYTHLg7PQ/?igshid=1b63rcontqdeu

✊🏿💔💪🏿 “When we’re dancing with the angels, the question will be asked, in 2019, what did we do to make sure we kept our democracy intact? Did we stand on the sidelines and say nothing?" - The Honorable Elijah Cummings (D-MD) @repcummings

The great Elijah Cummings stood as a pilar of dignity and strength in his tireless fight for human rights and true democratic equality for all. A civil rights activist from the age 11. We created this T-shirt to show our solidarity with his message and his fight for truth. Our hearts are broken with his recent passing. We honor his commitment to fighting for humanity with a moral compass and we live our lives with his influence. #elijahcummings graphic art @arnoldparkstudios photo @zenarkraige styling @karlosteel fashion #willychavarria #willychavarrianewyork https://www.instagram.com/p/B4anMgcJPp8/?igshid=d9w94zg9o5ra
