House Oversight Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings died early Thursday in Baltimore at the age of 68.

The Maryland Democrat, who was helping lead the impeachment inquiry into President Trump, died due to complications from long-standing health problems, according to the Associated Press. He has also led several other investigations into the president and frequently sparred with the administration.
