We Have the Power to Control Our Future
Emily Randall (D)
State Senate, District 26
Randall is among the Legislature’s biggest champions of abortion rights, especially when compared to her extremist opponent. At the legislature, she has sponsored multiple pieces of legislation improving equitable access to health care for all Washingtonians.
This year, Senator Emily Randall (D) sponsored and passed one of the strongest abortion protection bills in the country. HB 1851/SB 5766, known as the “Affirm Washington Abortion Access Act,” ensures that qualified, licensed advanced practice clinicians can provide abortion care. The bill also strengthens protections for people helping loved ones access abortion care, and reaffirms Washington’s proud position of protecting and expanding abortion rights and access.
Vote Emily Randall by November 8!
