Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) will be named as acting chair of the House Oversight Committee, one of the three panels investigating President Donald Trump amid an impeachment inquiry, following the death of Rep. Elijah Cummings on Thursday morning.

Democratic leadership aides told The Hill, New York-based Pix11, and the New York Post that Maloney will chair the panel.
