Biography

Emily Randall is the Democratic incumbent for Washington's 6th District, first elected in 2024 to succeed Derek Kilmer. A Port Orchard native and Wellesley College graduate, she worked for nonprofit and health-care organizations before serving in the Washington State Senate from 2019 to 2024, where she was Deputy Majority Leader. Her campaign lists climate change, costs, democracy, health care, education, and abortion access among her core issues.[1][2][3][4]

Randall was born in Port Orchard, Washington, to a union household; according to her official biography, her father worked at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and her mother was an educator at South Kitsap High School.[1][2][3] She was the first in her family to graduate college, earning bachelor's degrees in Spanish and women's studies from Wellesley College in 2008, and her campaign says she paid for school by working in retail and waiting tables.[1][2][3]

After college she worked as a development professional with Wellesley College, the San Francisco AIDS Foundation, Planned Parenthood Federation of America (beginning in 2016, per her campaign), and Legal Voice.[1][3] Randall won election to the Washington State Senate from the 26th Legislative District in 2018, defeating Marty McClendon, and was reelected in 2022 over Jesse L. Young. She served from 2019 to 2024.[1] In the state senate she was Deputy Majority Leader and sat on the Higher Education and Workforce Development, Health and Long-Term Care, and Ways and Means committees, according to her campaign website, which cites her legislation on post-partum Medicaid coverage, pay transparency, subminimum wage for people with disabilities, and abortion providers.[3]

Randall was elected to the U.S. House in November 2024, defeating Drew MacEwen, to succeed Rep. Derek Kilmer, and took office in 2025.[1] For the 2025-2026 Congress she sits on the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform (Government Operations; Health Care and Financial Services subcommittees) and the Committee on Natural Resources (Federal Lands; Indian and Insular Affairs subcommittees).[1]
