Rep. Elijah Cummings (Md.), the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, said on Sunday that he and other Democratic lawmakers have to find ways to work with President Donald Trump.

"I think we have to work with him," Cummings told CBS host John Dickerson on "Face the Nation."

"I keep telling people that this is our president for the next four years," Cummings said of Trump.

Cummings told Dickerson that the Trump administration has plans to meet with the Congressional Black Caucus to work on urban issues. He also said that Trump responded to a letter from the Congressional Black Caucus just a few day ago.

"I've got to work with this president, but at the same time there has been nobody tougher on this president than I have," Cummings said.
