Cummings spoke about the bills.
"Our intelligence agencies are warning us and they are screaming trying to tell us that if we do not respond now the Russians will attack us again," he said. "It's not about Donald Trump. It's not about Hillary Clinton. It's not about Republicans, Democrats or Independents. It's not even about 2016. It is about our future."
