State Sen. Randall Could Make History as First LGBTQ+ Latina in Congress
LGBTQ+ Victory Fund Spotlight Candidate Emily Randall won Tuesday’s Democratic primary to represent Washington’s 6th District in Congress. With a general election victory in November, she’ll make history as the first queer Latina in Congress.
Annise Parker, president and CEO of LGBTQ+ Victory Fund issued the following statement:
“Emily embodies the ideals of public service and dedication to her community – that’s why voters trust her to be their voice in Congress. At LGBTQ+ Victory Fund we work to ensure our leaders in government reflect the beautiful diversity of our country, and it’s far overdue that LGBTQ+ Latinas are represented in the halls of power. We have stood with Emily in each of her races, from flipping a seat in 2018 to this hard-fought Congressional primary win. We will continue do everything we can to mobilize pro-equality, pro-choice voters to come out and secure a general election victory in November.”
