He and his wife, Amy, live with their son in Albuquerque. Orozco is committed to fighting for New Mexico values, including faith, family, and freedom. His policy goals include lowering taxes, tackling inflation, protecting oil and gas jobs, and backing law enforcement. He seeks to be a conservative ally for President Trump in Congress.
