The following is the transcript of the interview with Rep. Jason Crow, Democrat of Colorado, that aired on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan" on Oct. 25, 2026.

MARGARET BRENNAN: We go now to Democratic Congressman Jason Crow of Colorado, who is in Denver this morning. Congressman, our CBS polling shows Democrats are on pace to have a narrow majority of about 11 seats and that for most voters who are backing Democrats, they tell us their motivation is more about stopping Trump and GOP policies than advancing other policies. Is that how you think your party will govern the House in opposition?

REPRESENTATIVE JASON CROW: You know- you know politics is really interesting. There's a lot of weird things about politics in this job. But one of the weird things is when, you know, the political class comes out with polling and they're like, "Hey, Americans want to be able to pay their bills and afford health care and afford housing and- and groceries." I mean, that- that's just it always has been true, always will be true. It always will be the primary thing people are concerned about.
