Rep. Jason Crow (D-Colo.) said Tuesday that Democrats are "taking names" and creating lists of people who need to be held accountable, describing the effort as a response to reported plans by the Trump administration's Department of Justice to target perceived enemies.

Crow's comments came during remarks about what he characterized as the administration's development of an "enemies" list within the DOJ. The Colorado congressman indicated that Democrats would seek accountability measures against the current administration.

The statement reflects escalating tensions between Democratic lawmakers and the Trump administration over reported Justice Department activities. Crow did not provide specific details about what form the accountability measures might take or who would be included on such lists.

The remarks came on the same day that leaders of the Democratic Women's Caucus sent a letter to House Appropriations Committee leadership outlining the group's budget priorities for fiscal year 2027. The letter was addressed to Committee Chair Tom Cole (R-Okla.) and ranking member Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.), following the White House's recent budget request release.

Crow's announcement adds to ongoing political disputes between congressional Democrats and the Trump administration over various policy and oversight issues.
