In the Washington State Senate, Randall spearheaded the Randall Bill in 2019 to help military families' children enroll in school before having a district address, and sponsored a successful 2022 bill that reduced Tacoma Narrows Bridge tolls by 75 cents. In the U.S. House, she introduced the bipartisan ANCHOR for Military Families Act and has been a vocal advocate against cuts to Medicaid and healthcare programs. She has publicly opposed bills restricting transgender rights, posted an all-gender bathroom sign in her office, and walked out of President Trump's 2025 Address to Congress in protest of proposed Medicaid cuts.
