Excerpt: LGBT issues may not play a central role in the campaign, but Orozco said she intends to be a strong advocate for the LGBT community if elected. She supports a bill introduced this session in the House to add transgender-inclusive language to the state's non-discrimination and hate crimes laws, and she said she is particularly interested in working on LGBT elder and youth issues.
