Career[]

The daughter of General Raymond Lorho (1924–2014), Marie-France Lorho was active in local politics in Orange prior to her tenure in the National Assembly. She is close to Mayor Jacques Bompard and was his substitute in the 2017 legislative election. Following Bompard's resignation to focus on his mayorship, Lorho became a parliamentarian.

In February 2018, alongside Emmanuelle Ménard, she proposed a bill which would recognise the 1790s killings in Vendée by troops under the command of the National Convention as war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide.[3]
