Cummings' widow says attacks on Baltimore 'hurt' the late congressman

Maya Rockeymoore Cummings, the widow of the late Rep. Elijah Cummings, said on Friday that the congressman was "hurt" in the last months of his life by attacks against him and on the city of Baltimore -- an apparent response to President Donald Trump's earlier attacks on the congressman and his hometown.

Hours before passing, Cummings signed immigration subpoenas

In one of his last official acts before his death, the late House Oversight and Reform Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings signed two subpoenas for documents related to a temporary end to a policy change that allowed some immigrants with severe health issues to remain in the US.
