Joseph J. Carraro was a State Senator in New Mexico for over twenty years, beginning in 1985 and ending his service in 2009. He was a former acquaintance and supporter of Ronald Reagan who encouraged him to run for elected office. His first election race in 1984 he ran in a district had a 4 to 1 Democrat majority and he won as a Republican 2 to 1. He was named National Outstanding Legislator of the Year. In 2008 he changed his political registration from Republican to independent. Senator Carraro received an MBA and a PhD; and has taught Organizational and Human Behavior and Professional Ethics in graduate school, and President of the Executive Management Association of New Mexico.

During the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, he was responsible for getting the gasoline needed to run the generators in New Orleans, and was then tasked with mopping floors in the emergency trauma center, taking those morbidly obese to the bathroom, and helping organize Angel Flights for those who lost their homes to be reunited with family members throughout the country, and eventually being placed in charge of the psychiatric triage. He was then singled out by the Louisiana Legislature in the passing of a resolution in his honor for his response and contribution to those in desperate need.
