WASHINGTON—Maryland Democrat Kweisi Mfume rejoined the House on May 5 to replace the late Rep. Elijah Cummings, taking his oath of office with a protective mask in his left hand, the latest symbol of how Congress and the country are adjusting to the CCP virus pandemic.
Mfume will represent a majority-black Baltimore-area district that has been hit hard by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, commonly known as the novel coronavirus, and its near shutdown of the economy.
